wicd questions

[whopper]

How can I get wicd to display current connection status icons in the KDE toolbar. I added the application to the toolbar, but is there a way to display if there is activity going through my Wired Network or how many bars my wireless network has?

Thanks in advance!

Try here
wicd - home

Minimize it to icon

To show signal strength in the taskbar, type:

wicd-client

in terminal. The wicd in the Internet menu runs wicd-client --no-tray.

Awesome, I am now able to get the icon to show up.

Now my next question is what is the correct way to add a program to autostart.

I see you can add the program in a few different places but which one would be best for starting wicd?
Here are a few places I have seen so far:
~/.kde3/Autostart
/usr/share/autostart
/usr/bin/startkde

Thanks!
