I use gkrellm as a usage monitor on my internet connection which is a USB 3G huawei E220 modem. Now for some unknown reason gkrell seems to forget some of my usage stats after booting. Comparing my grkellm usage stats to the usage stats that vnstat gives the difference is about a 100MB.
Any particular reason or cause for this?

Hi, what do you mean by forgetting usage stats after booting. Afaik gkrellm starts storing stats when it starts. Maybe I'm confused.

My gkrellm starts up with openbox, ie gkrellm is running when I am connected via ppp0, so is vnstat. Last night my bandwidth usage total was as approximatelt 340MB, today after switching the pc off last night and back on today it dropped to 240MB. But vnstat still shows 340MB?
