@gargoyle67: The hack switches the fonts by default, if you don't see anything new after a full restart, something went wrong.
@Tvangeste: AFAICT, the auto feature should still work. (As usual, make sure it's properly named "auto", without any extension). Make sure you got the latest version, the fw 3.x usbnetd issue *might* have prevented that to work at boot, too. It's started very early at boot (rcS), so you'll have to do a real full restart. If it's still not working, PM me your system logs

.
Speaking of latest version...
Bump USBNetwork to v0.20.N
* Enable htop's pretty colors by default :}.
* Make it clear that the config file must stay with UNIX line endings.
NOTE: You might need a proper terminal emulator for the colors to work. Can't vouch for Windows terminal emulators, but any decent Linux term, PuTTY, and the OS X Terminal should do fine. Here's a snapshot of how it's supposed to look like (and the keyboard input should work too).
