Yepp, this version is really outdated in intrepid unfortunaltely :(. 0.1.2 version has still the configuration done by ~/.giplet directory, after 0.1.6 it was switched to gconf. > Salvatore (if you or whoever is the maintainer) what I would request > or/and suggest is that put the version as a PPA if possible and get it > built for Intrepid. I'm only the maintainer of the Debian package, which get's synced into Ubuntu. Since intrepid is released the version there will remain on the gutsy version, that a bit a pity, so here are the packages for intrepid in my PPA: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/carnil/ubuntu intrepid main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/carnil/ubuntu intrepid main I uploaded version 0.1.8-2 there. Note: yesterday I prepared 0.2.0 the newest upstream version for Debian, soon will also upload this version to PPA. > Secondly, it gets deleted from the panel if the resource (in this case > getmyip.org is not up) .

Can you test it with the version from my PPA? Whit that, a line as "www.getmyip.org whatismyip.org" should work, if getmyip.org is down it should probe the second www.whatismyip.org. > Also moving from getmyip.org to whatismyip.org also makes it hanged. > > There is actually also a need for a good error message in case the URL > is down (but that's another bug) The new version 0.2.0 implements a "tooltip" functionality, which should show "No IP detected", if all given "interfaces" fails. Would be great if you can test the 0.1.8 version, since 0.1.2 is really old.
