- This package provides the notification applet to the control system.
+ This package contains a systray applet for GNOME's notification area but it
+ also works for other desktop environments which provide a systray like KDE
+ or XFCE.
+ It displays the available networks and allows to easily switch between them.
+ For encrypted networks it will prompt the user for the key/passphrase and it
+ can optionally store them in the gnome-keyring.
