Package: wavemon
Version: 0.4.0b-11
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
I have two wireless cards on my notebook: eth1 and eth2. Despite I
specify the "-i eth2" option, wavemon gets signal and noise levels
from the eth1 interface. The summary instead displays the correct
interface name.
I traced the problem into iw_if.c: the function s_handler() calls
iw_getstat() with the first parameter being "eth1", ignoring command
line and configuration file.
I changed the first parameter in "conf->ifname", and now the program
works fine:
iw_getstat(conf->ifname, &iw_stats, iw_stats_cache, conf->slotsize,
conf->random);
I cannot guarantee that this is a perfect patch, but it is working
here.
