FWIW (moral support or whatever), I see exactly the same problem in my 
MRTG installation:
kMg is applied to the daily graph, but not to the others.

I haven't (yet) tried to track down the cause, but suspect a bug rather 
than a configuration error.
This is because kMg is a per-target option, not a per-graph one as (for 
example) WithPeak is.
So, if it's working for the daily graph, it should work also for the 
others.
