Sorry for the misunderstanding, but I mean this:
1. I start a network intensive task anywhere, e.g. a download
2. Make sure tleds is running
3. I select Alt+Ctrl+F1 and then end up in a VT console #1 I see the
LEDs blink
4. I select Alt+Ctrl+F7 and end up in X, whatever I did there before,
The LEDs do *not* blink there.

Just rebooted into my SID partition to see whats up.
1. Started an aptitude update on VT3 as root. Tleds not working, so
ran tleds -d 200 ppp0 as root on VT1. Tleds now working
2. When the update finished I went to X as a user, started firefox
and went to firefox site. Tleds still working.

The problem here is that tleds is not startingi or restarting
from /etc/init.d/tleds.
So I put this in root's .inputrc to get tleds running. Leds now works as it
did before, for console net connects and also X net connects.
# Esc then t
"\et":"/usr/bin/tleds -d 200 ppp0\C-M"

Wayne, I have tried that image on Sid, same xorg components, and tleds
does *not* light the leds, when I am in X.
I changed the tleds code to use X routines instead of ioctl's (which was
in the upstream version but removed by Debian) and guess what:
there is a bug in xbase-clients (now 7 years old) that prevents NumLock
and CapsLock from turning on :-(
But... there is a -n option in tleds introduced by Debian that only
turns on the ScrollLock LED.
So I run tleds with the -n option and my own xtleds in X and now I
always have a traffic indicator in the ScrollLock LED.
