Hi,
I noticed when upgrading to KDE 4.2.2, the network monitor no longer showed
outgoing bandwidth. I blamed this on the app first, but after installing
net/bmon the problem is there as well.
It uses int mib[] = {CTL_NET, PF_ROUTE, 0, 0, NET_RT_IFLIST, 0}; to read
if_msghdr structs and ifm->ifm_data.ifi_obytes.
netstat has the same problem:
input (em0) output
packets errs bytes packets errs bytes colls
199 0 63203 117 0 0 0
193 0 59995 97 0 0 0
185 0 63023 105 0 0 0
200 0 60642 104 0 0 0
199 0 63102 100 0 0 0
215 0 62733 94 0 2891 0
That 2891 is a mystery, all the while I was copying a file remotely at
~150KB/s.

I saw some net related entries in UPDATING but they make so little sense to
me, I shouldn't be affected by it ;). Kernel and world were build/upgraded in
sync, make delete-old and delete-old-libs done so I should be in compliance
with those entries anyway (20090415 and 14 entries).
