The gkrellm plugin only works for a few devices at this time and ath is not one of them. It works for my old Prism 2.5 card, but not my new Atheros. :-{ Maybe an interface to the 802.11 layer would make this plugin work for all modern wireless cards. I really prefer gkrellm to the standard Gnome monitoring tools. Looks like Hajimu UMEMOTO has done much of the FreeBSD work on this plugin. I cc'd him on this, but I have no idea if he has time or interest. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
