Hi,
Yeah, I figured out too. I think it's because the ${interface down_kb}
variable is expanded by wicked itself, so you cannot use it inside
your rc.lua.
The solution would be to register your own net-meter script with
wicked, since modifying directly /usr/share/awesome/lib/wicked.lua
isn't a good idea.
Wicked is parsing the output of 'cat /proc/net/dev', I'll probably
make a script that parses this output and formats it to a fixed width
when I get home and post it here.
