Hi,

 Could you tell me if you have a wifi device ?  It would be great if you could send me the output of   ifconfig -a   :-)

Thanks!

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 172889 ***

yes I was live on the wifi device and the ethernet device was down at the time of the screenshot. below is the output of ifconfig -a (HWaddr is changed to xx:xx...)

it is still not fixed yet. http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/9182/snapshot1hj1.jpg

shows ksysguard with almost 6.5MiB/s where as the systemplasmoid with network is showing almost no activity on the network. At the time of the screenshot there was no network activity. 

please fix this

Just to confirm - this screenshot was taken with the latest SVN?  You need to 'make install' for ksysguard to use the new ksysguardd.  Could you paste the result of running:

ifconfig -a
echo "network/interfaces/lo/transmitter/data" | ksysguardd
echo "network/interfaces/eth0/transmitter/data" | ksysguardd
echo "network/interfaces/eth1/transmitter/data" | ksysguardd

Thanks

For all the interfaces I get the same result as above

i am still having the problem with ksysguard showing wrong tx/rx traffic for my ethernet devices, any ideas on whats happening? this is with latest kde/qt-copy trunk (compiled about 8hrs ago)

ps: i should mention that i am running kernel 2.6.22, if that is of any help. LEt me know if I need to run any other tests to check. I am surprised that the network plasmoid actually shows the correct information.

btw, is the tx/rx information shown unique for each of the network device throughput or a cumulative of all the network devices?

this is with: qt-copy 905254, kdebase:905255, kdelibs: 905232
