Hi! i'm using dropwatch to debug drops in my system.

I tried launching dropwatch with and without -l kas I set it with set sw 1 set hw 0 set alertmode packet Every time i have a drop dropwatch prints: Receive operation failed:: No buffer space available if i set sw 0 set hw 1 it prints nothing. I can i debug this further? Thanks
