 Posted: Tue Jan 09, 2007 2:32 am Post subject: Gkrellm network monitor |
 |
|
Hi, I have a small problem with the network monitor graph within gkrellm. When my network card transfers a file gkrellm displays double the speed and then goes on and off. So if I was transferring at 10MB a sec, it would show 20 MB a sec then the next value would be 0, then back to 20, then 0 again. It just does this over and over again. So the graph shows every other value as 0 and all real values as double the actual number.
I'm not really sure what could be causing this, I was thinking it may have something to do with the buffer the network card uses.
Any Ideas?
Thanks |

resolutions per grid (on eth0) is prolly on auto ? set it to a static value and it should only stay at one resolution
it does this as it increases like if u have 5 kbs it will take the whole grapth but if it increases to 50 it scales it down so it looks like it changes but in reality it doesnt |

I'm having same behaviour. It's not a gkrellm problem, as I'm seeing the same with net-analyzer/bmon. I'm having this problem in a new ibm-t40 laptop I just installed, however same kernel in a different hardware (ethernet) is performing correctly.
I'm really confused. Does anybody have an idea on why it's happening?
Thanks
