AnalogMachine Collection: NetVU
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
NetVU after some personal thought and some requests is now available! This is not a real VU though... The range of possible network traffic values even on the same computer is extremely large. Even a logarithmic equation describing the needle's movement (the inverse, more or less, of the DiscVU case) could leave many uncovered areas. I chose the solution on many older analog V/I/R polymeters used in electronic labs: short range linear needle and a scale indicator. This way, NetVU covers with the same detail cases of 1-15kb/s, great for a dial-up ppp0, or even up to the dizzyngly extreme of 150Mb/s that even a gigabit ethernet will not saturate.

v. 0.2:
NetVU version 0.2, uses a kdialog combobox to select easily and on-the-fly the desired interface to monitor. Interfaces are discovered through /proc/net/dev and thus you will be presented with interfaces even in the "down" status.

For reference, the key is to start them with a command line, rather than a right-click on an existing one.

The SFX idea mentioned above would be cool. Not necessary, but cool.
Even without those, this is an amazing Karamba theme. Kudos to you!

The user could switch this on or off at will.
This would give it the distinctive "thunk" sound the old machines used to have when the digits changed.

It can't handle 4 or 5 digits.
Wonderful stuff!
