Hi Damian,

If I run tor-prompt and ARM side by side, the tor-prompt results are
updated when I do a GETINFO circuit-status. The ARM circuits page only
updates after a restart.

Maybe my system/configuration has something to do with the problem. I
run my Tor proxy (and ARM) on an Allwinner A20 ARM system with Debian
Jessie as OS. Debian does not use the latests versions of software...

I did:

git clone https://git.torproject.org/nyx.git
cd nyx
./run_nyx
