When does that netlink speed difference matter - only when collecting stats?

Linux hostname 2.6.21.7-2.fc8xen #1 SMP Fri Feb 15 12:34:28 EST 2008
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Using "modprobe inet_diag" made the script spit out a new error:
address active queued
linux-tcp-listener-stats.rb:42:in `tcp_listener_stats': NLMSG_ERROR
(RuntimeError)
from linux-tcp-listener-stats.rb:42
$ sudo modprobe -l inet_diag
/lib/modules/2.6.21.7-2.fc8xen/kernel/net/ipv4/inet_diag.ko
I dug in to raindrops a little bit, and it seems the error associated
with the NLMSG_ERROR is -2,
"No such file or directory".
