maemo4.1.2? That's an odd repository path. SDK, maybe? Hmm.

Also, will iptraf do the job?

4.1.2 is just last SSU.

I just tried IPtraf together with BlueTooth DUN (ppp0), and while the last update of software is from 2005 I believe IPtraf will work.

By default its ncurses but you can run it in background. You can let it monitor ppp0 only, and it will save its logs, until you say it should ignore it.

But that other piece of software is maintained and can save for day/week/month.

All what this software does is check /proc/net/dev ppp0 Rx bytes and Tx bytes and write this to log file. Then you only need a parser, and keep into account there is sometimes a reboot or reset because counters are 32 bit. So if new value is less than old you add old + new. Thats all.

What is also interesting is a userspace accounting daemon (example), but then you use IPTables, and thats overkill. However people are probably going to use QoS on their N900, and using this you can do accounting per process.

Hm, it seems to have come from the official repository here:

Code:
Nokia-N810-43-7:~# dpkg -S /bin/ip
iproute: /bin/ip
Nokia-N810-43-7:~# apt-cache policy iproute
iproute:
  Installed: 20070313-1ubuntu1-osso3
  Candidate: 20070313-1ubuntu1-osso3
  Version table:
 *** 20070313-1ubuntu1-osso3 0
        500 http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com ./ Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
It probably won't show up in application manager, but try apt-get install-ing it.

True, but there was no real compelling reason to have it in alpha/beta releases. I think we may still get it (or the busybox equivalent) in the release version.

Good news. I've found a developer that's interested in making the Cell use widget for us. Initially being very simple so that it could be ready in time for the N900's release, potentially growing to having more features later on down the line.

Further good news... he's pushed a first version of the widget to me. It works with a few minor changes needed. There's little doubt in my mind that the widget will be completely ready for primetime and within Maemo Extras soon.

I'll keep you all posted.

1. great idea
2. could combine this and cell phone minutes use in one widget?
3. next to the reset option, make it adjustable at what day of the month the new cycle begins. (f.e. currently my cycle begins the 14th, so the phone could reset the stuff/update the new amount automatically.
4. be able to set up stuff like minutes that you can take with you to the next month
or bandwitdth to take to the next month
(my provider lets me take my old minutes, and maybe some providers let you take you old unused bandwidth to the next month(or sometimes even 2 or more))
5. amount of $/euros you are over your 'bundle')

just my thoughts

Looks great. And I'm having a hard time making it to 250MB in a month (half of my 500 MB plan limit), so I think I'll start streaming Internet radio on the bus...
