OK, so neither Nigel nor Russ seem to want to answer this one :-)

The reason the sysload graph doesn't reflect packets is because it
is activated early, before the ethernet card is activated.  The
graph's namespace does not include an active view of the network
devices.  Took me a little while to puzzle that one out :-(

Start it later, and the packets will show up.  Ask Russ how to
start it, I can't remember :-)
