Greetings all,

it has been some time since the last post so here is an update on the metric 
status.

Since the SMART patch _does_ work but only when running gmond as root I've 
decided to drop the SMART mechanics and focussed fully on the "normal" 
seek/read syscalls.

After a bit of testing I've noticed that it works fine until you run gmond 
without the debug option (-d). Because if you do all the lseek and read calls 
fail for some mysterious reason. I'm still working on figuring out why this 
happens but in the mean time I successfully ported the uniform mount list to 
FreeBSD and did a bit of testing on that. 

When I can find the time I'll try the lseek/read syscalls on FreeBSD to see if 
it works there.

you've got the wrong problem.
