Description of problem: After installing Network Monitor in the main panel of XFCE4, network statistics are not displayed. In Properties, network field was empty. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.9.8.2-8.git20130709.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Network Monitor applet 2. Try to put the string "wlp0s11f1u1" in its Properties Actual results: The last characters "u1" of the string cannot be entered. When I changed to another userid and manually edited $HOME/.config/xfce/panel/netload-<n>.rc and logged back in again as the original user, the network name was displayed as 8 characters. Expected results: Network statistics in the applet Additional info: This machine has two wifi interfaces, one built-in, and one on a USB.
Changed component name. (I couldn't do that in Midori because Midori started taking 96% of the processor, and failed to provide the drop-down menu. I used Firefox on an F18 machine instead.) Component name: xfce4-netload-plugin-1.2.0-2.fc19.x86_64 .
Correction to the description: The machine has two USB Wifi interfaces, and none built-in.
