I have built and installed emacs version 18.52.15. I have time.el loaded in my .emacs file, and the time dutifully comes up in the status line. I have also built this version of emacs for the Sun 3's and Sun 4's at work. They have the same .emacs file, and also load time.el and loadst program. On the Suns, I get the time and the system load factor. On the Xenix 2.3.2 system at home, I only get the time. I'd like to get the system load factor also, but don't understand why it does not display. What am I doing wrong? Is there a reson for this? Thanks for the help.. Erik.

The problem is most likely that loadst can't read /dev/kmem. The usual fix is to make loadst setgid and chgrp'd to the group that /dev/kmem belongs to. Make sure that /dev/kmem is group readable, of course. -- Dave Sill (de5@ornl.gov) These are my opinions. Martin Marietta Energy Systems Workstation Support
