Fix for this has been committed (fix idle rate equal to 1 instead of 0 when using net_avg_samples=1). karmic user wishing to benefit from this change can use the package from my ppa: https://launchpad.net/~norsetto/+archive/ppa/+packages ** Changed in: conky (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete =>

Hi, hhh, I do not now exactly what net_avg_samples is (The number of samples to average for net data), but I changed it to "2" and now it works! Thanks a lot. -- conky network speed 1B in idle https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/493131 You received this bug notification because you are a member

What is your net_avg_samples configuration variable? Can you show us the content of the file /proc/net/dev? Can you check if the first and ninth items of the eth0 line in this file are constant or do they regularly change when conky is showing the 1B speed? -- conky network speed 1B in idle http

Hi, sure, I did it, but I still had 1B when I have my net cable unplugged:) This is funny. -- conky network speed 1B in idle https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/493131 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing l

Thank you for the additional information. I used your network config and still cannot reproduce this bug. I wondered if you might try unplugging your network interface completely so that we know your network has no traffic and see if conky will then report zero. -- conky network speed 1B in idle

Carl good point... but anyway, tcp dump gave me nothing. I tried to stop network completely (networking stop) and I still have 1B of upload and download... Hmm, this is really weird. To be sure, I enclose my whole network fragment: ${font Arial:bold:size=10}${color sienna}NETWORK ${color DarkSlate

You may want to try to: sudo tcpdump -i eth0 at a terminal window to see if the interface is really idle. I have installed conky on 9.10 and on my interface that is truly idle (no link light) and I get 0k/s in and 0k/s out. I suspect that running tcpdump will show that there really is some traffi
