Folks,

        Found some minor issues with the default graph sizes as suggested
in the sample-config/Defaults file. I kept getting errors like this:

[17-Aug-1999 09:50:15*] Actual graph width (595) differs from width-hint (596).
[17-Aug-1999 09:50:15*] Actual graph height (255) differs from
height-hint (267)
..
[17-Aug-1999 09:50:15*] Actual graph width (595) differs from width-hint (596).
[17-Aug-1999 09:50:15*] Actual graph height (255) differs from
height-hint (267)
..
[17-Aug-1999 09:50:24*] Actual graph width (595) differs from width-hint (596).
[17-Aug-1999 09:50:24*] Actual graph height (255) differs from
height-hint (267)
..
[17-Aug-1999 09:50:24*] Actual graph width (595) differs from width-hint (596).
[17-Aug-1999 09:50:24*] Actual graph height (255) differs from
height-hint (267)

        So, I found out where the problems were and fixed them. Here's my diffs:

diff -u -r cricket-config/Defaults ./cricket/sample-config/Defaults
--- cricket-config/Defaults Tue Aug 17 09:54:04 1999
+++ ./cricket/sample-config/Defaults Sat Jul 10 04:38:55 1999

          # are worse than no hints!
- width-hint = 595
- height-hint = 255
+ width-hint = 596
+ height-hint = 267
          # if this attribute exists, then vertical rules will be placed
          # on the graphs at every zero-time, i.e. midnight, Monday, first of
          # the month, first of the year.

        I can tell you that cricket 0.70 seems to work okay with rrdtool
1.06, although I haven't really created any real configuration
information (I'm still stepping through doc/beginner.txt trying to
learn how everything goes together).

        I guess I have the "advantage" that I'm not trying to bring
forward old configurations, nor am I "hampered" by previous
experience with mrtg. ;-)

        Thanks for all your hard work!
