How can I find out what's going on?
Maybe its GKrellm sniffing around out there?
Shut down GKrellm and use ifconfig to see if the TX/RX counts climb. It could be just looking for wireless netowrks (iwscan or something).
ok, gkrellm is not running anymore, and ifconfig shows that some dropped rx packets and some tx bytes : RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:905 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:23994 (23.4 Kb) some seconds later, some more: RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:916 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:24420 (23.8 Kb) RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:959 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:26388 (25.7 Kb) RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:1036 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:7 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:30462 (29.7 Kb) RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:1155 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:34998 (34.1 Kb) What is tx'ed here?
