I'm using

ii  rrdtool                 1.3.1-4                 Time-series data
storage and display system (programs)

now, for some extra news.

I followed a tutorial at:

http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/tut/rrdtutorial.en.html

and it worked like a charm *but* if I added entries with timestamps
out of step (e.g., jumping forward 800 instead of 300 as in the
tutorial), I get the RRA full of NaNs. I think that's what broke my
ganglia install here. Folkert's example doesn't work neither on
Squeeze. And my use case

   rrdtool create test.rrd             \
            --start 920804400          \
            DS:speed:COUNTER:600:U:U   \
            RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:24       \
            RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:10

 rrdtool update test.rrd 920804700:12345 920805000:12357 920805300:12363
 rrdtool update test.rrd 920805600:12363 920805900:12363 920806200:12373
 rrdtool update test.rrd 920806500:12383 920806800:12393 920807100:12399
 rrdtool update test.rrd 920807400:12405 920807700:12411 920808000:12415
 rrdtool update test.rrd 920808300:12420 920808600:12422 920808900:12423

and then doing

rrdtool update 920809900:12423

also doesn't work on a Lenny 32 bit chroot.

I start to think I have ganglia misconfigured and this is just the way
rrdtool is supposed to work.
