I have tried that, but now olsr get stuck after a little while. I
have tried with -d 0, -d 1 and -d 3. I have put a new file at:

ftp://ftp2.za.freebsd.org/pub/local/screenlog.1.bz2

It still reacts to ^C and pressing <enter> does go to a new line.
It just seem to stop sending and processing data. I cannot connect
to port 2004 (dot_draw plugin) either. Never seen this before. I
have run the previous code for long times and it has not happened.
It does not seem to stop at the same place either.
