Comment 2 Nicolas Lécureuil 2016-07-11 18:18:14 CEST 
Is it still valid with Plasma 5.7 and KDE Applications 16.04.3 ?
Comment 3 PC LX 2016-07-12 13:09:09 CEST 
Yes, as of this moment, with all packages up-to-date, this bug is still valid.

Comment 4 Samuel Verschelde 2016-09-08 22:04:10 CEST 
Is it still valid with the recent plasma update in cauldron?
Comment 5 PC LX 2016-09-13 10:33:44 CEST 
Just did an update to cauldron and this bug is still active.
Comment 6 PC LX 2016-10-04 13:18:22 CEST 
On a up-to-date cauldron, this bug is still valid.

Noticed something that didn't notice before. It showed a graph for some time, then the graph froze for some more time, then stopped showing the graph, only showing the zeros like in the attached screen shot). Don't know if this behaviour is new or it was like this before but I just didn't notice it.
Comment 7 PC LX 2016-11-11 12:08:01 CET 
On a up-to-date cauldron, this bug is still valid.

$ rpm -q plasma-applet-nm networkmanager
plasma-applet-nm-5.8.3-2.mga6
networkmanager-1.4.2-1.mga6
Comment 8 PC LX 2016-12-12 11:21:30 CET 
This issue seems to have been solved in a recent update. The net traffic graph now is reliably showing in the plasma-applet-nm.

Changing status to resolved.

Comment 9 PC LX 2017-04-18 23:35:48 CEST 
This issue is back. I'm not certain when the regression occurred. I did another upgrade from Mageia 5 to cauldron yesterday and today I noticed there was no data in the traffic graph, just like before.

# rpm -q plasma-applet-nm networkmanager
plasma-applet-nm-5.8.6-2.mga6
networkmanager-1.6.2-4.mga6

There are some NetworkManager related messages in .xsession-errors.
Don't know if these are of any revelance to this issue.

Comment 10 Aurelien Oudelet 2020-10-29 10:59:33 CET 
Not reproduced in Mageia Cauldron 8.

$ urpmq -i plasma-applet-nm
plasma-nm-5.20.1-1.mga8.src.rpm

Closing this.
