Hi,

Hey this is a really useful utility. I've just had a closer look at
this.
I noticed that in order to really shine on Linux, this should be
compiled with netlink support (requires libnl which doesn't seem to
be available in a Debian package - but the source is available here:
http://people.suug.ch/~tgr/libnl/ )

Would it be possible for someone to package this library and for
your package to be built against it ? This would allow bmon to see
the bandwidth use of traffic going through different qdiscs on
an interface.

Regards,
Filip
