System Load Indicator 0.3

Bug Description

my network graphic is solid and now that I have the pull down stats (nice feature by the way) the network shows up as down 100GB/s, up 100GB/s with little activity. My system monitor only shows little activity, 100b at most.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 with Unity Desktop.

Ok, that's fast.

Could you post the output of "ls -d /sys/class/net/*/*" and "dpkg-architecture"?

I wish my network was running that fast.

Could you try to install the beta version from http://mh21.de/temp/indicator-multiload_0.3-0~43~15_amd64.deb?

I don't think this version will solve your problems (yet), but you can start it with "indicator-multiload -v" to get some information on the processing that is going on behind the scenes.

This should give you a dump of all recognized network devices and the resulting network speeds. Could you post an example of the output corresponding to the 100GB/s?
