Same goes for interrupts (not shown here). I've tested various releases of procps from procps.sf.net and found that version 3.2.3 appears to work properly (3.2.2 does not). This is Debian Stable/Sarge on i386, kernel 2.6.10. Additional; procps 3.2.1-2 on Debian Stable/Sarge (64bit) on AMD64 appears to work correctly, though.... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
