Is the package "network-manager" the default package for the panel in Budgie?
Why is it that since whatever update recently the cursor can hover for ever over the network icon but it doesn't display which network you are connected to.
That used to be the case, now not only doesn't it display anything anymore but it also doesn't display anything not even when I right-click on the network icon, instead it shows a too small column without text, and most of the time the laptop freezes.
That has never happened on my installations of Budgie before, for years!
Any ideas?
Budgie network-manager
The issue of no tooltip on hover sounds like it might be connected to the new/updated system tray implementation in Budgie 10.8 (details in the blog post)
The other issue is weird, but seems to be the same one as here: https://discuss.getsol.us/d/9743-sync-updates-for-week-36-2023/22
It looks like network-manager-applet doesn't set the tooltip for the AppIndicator version, at least not that I could find by searching. I'm not sure if the library they're using supports it.
