forgive my intruding again.

I'm trying to get the net interface monitoring module of ksysguardd=20
(x11/kdebase3) to work. The patch calls getifaddrs but doesn't do any mor=
e.=20
The data i get back from getifaddrs have nothing attached at ifa_data - i=
t's=20
always null. After a cursory look at the getifaddrs source i thought mayb=
e i=20
needed BSDI compatibility in the kernel; just tried that, no such luck.

What do i need to do to get traffic data from a network interface?

(1.5.3/i386 if that makes a big difference)  thanks e Advance and all tha=
