This is not dulicate bug about 'uses unusual units to report memory and disk sizes'
I saw already bug #80780. There is no any words about network throughput. Only about sizes of memory and hard drives. Please remove duplicate bug. Please don't mix them. My bug said, that speed should be measured in units of bits per secnd, and not in bytes/per second. Bug #80780 said about 1000-based units and 1024-based units. 2009/4/25 Sebastien Bacher <seb...@ubuntu.com>: > *** This bug is a duplicate of bug 80780 *** > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/80780 > > ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 80780 > uses unusual units to report memory and disk sizes > > -- > system monitor uses incorrect network speed units > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366235 > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > > Status in “gnome-system-monitor” source package in Ubuntu: New > > Bug description: > Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor > > Network monitor uses incorrect units for showing network throughput.
