17 | + | * Minor changes to the return types of the python bindings functions. |
18 | + | |

79 | + | |
80 | + | * Network stats wrap-around bug fixed on Linux and FreeBSD |
81 | + | * Linux now reads disk information from /proc/partitions if available. |
82 | + | This results in it getting data for all the disks. |
83 | + | * An additional tool, statgrab, has been added to allow external programs |
84 | + | to easily parse statistics generated by libstatgrab. |
85 | + | * Scripts to generate MRTG (www.mrtg.org) configs with statgrab have |
