Well, I do use Gentoo on my laptop, but I bet no one is really interested in
this ;)

You're right. But, at the same time, might I say: let's try not to reinvent
the wheel?

I'm quite sure there are rpms and debs around for libgtop. After all, isn't it
supposed to come with any rpm distribution which supports Gnome? (And which
one doesn't?)

Let's not forget openMosix is not targeted at the desktop user and the avarage
sysadm should be able to cope with something like:

# rpm -Uvh libgtop-xxx.rpm

Yeah, I know it's easy to speak out and don't even write a line of code, I
know. Well, this is just my suggestion. Take it as such.

Ciao, Mirko.
