EtherApe is a graphical network monitor modeled after etherman. Featuring
Ethernet, IP, TCP, FDDI and Token Ring modes, it displays network activity
graphically. Hosts and links change in size with traffic. Color coded protocols
display. 

It supports Ethernet, FDDI, Token Ring, ISDN, PPP and SLIP devices. It can
filter traffic to be shown, and can read traffic from a file as well as live
from the network.

To set the kdesu su wrapper when called from the GUI desktop pass KDESU=yes to
the SlackBuild. This is not the default option, but if not enabled etherape 
will not monitor the ports if not called by root. 

EtherApe requires libgnomeui. It is available from slackbuilds.org.

Scrollkeeper is disabled by this SlackBuild. If you want to enable it, the 
comments in the SlackBuild can be helpful.
