Many pages of parse errors if I softlink the newest version number of it to memstat.c. Otherwise it cannot find it at all. Not much meat in the README's either. That isn't the one with the newest date however, wth? I'll try without it. And that, when built, then './xosview' to run it insitu, never shows its window, and never shows up in the process table. A ctrl-c returns the prompt instantly. So I'm not going to install that one... -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.27% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly Yahoo.com attornies please note, additions to this message by Gene Heskett are: Copyright 2003 by Maurice Eugene Heskett, all rights reserved. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
