All, I dunno how it happened but I have a CentOS 4.6 system that when I run "top" on it, the columns are in some retarded order (process name on one side and the %CPU over on the other, etc). If I had to guess, I'd say it was when randomly "typed" characters in to an unlocked keyboard with an open window to that machine on my laptop top while trying to carry too much stuff in to the data center at the same time (pile a half full and wobbly 100 CD sleeve, couple replacement hard disks in OEM packaging, a Brother P-Touch, the keys to the racks, and my laptop on my lap while rolling the wheelchair and badging, hand scanning, entering codes, giving blood, etc.
Anyway... I want it to go back to default display settings. If those are default, then want a different default. I learned there is a toprc file, I didn't have one that I could find, so that wasn't doing it. So, I set the columns the way I wanted them and wrote out a toprc file. When I restarted top, it didn't use the file I created (actually I let top create it with the "W" interactive command. So, it's got some config going on which is infuriating me and I am not yet successful at unfscking it. Any way to do this that I am missing ?.. um, aside from the behavior modification of not typing random crap in to an unlocked laptop with a pile of stuff.
