Has anyone gotten either sps or top to work on the 386i running 4.0.0? I've looked at the code, and it all looks pretty reasonable, but both sps and top complain of not being able to nlist symbols. This suggests that perhaps libkvm is broken under 4.0.0 on the Roadrunner -- I've tried both the static and dynamic libraries, with no success. Has anyone else seen this, or used the kvm routines successfully? What about under 4.0.1? Is this mabye reason enough to go through the (absurdly difficult and painful -- ARE YOU LISTENING, SUN ECD???) upgrade procedure? -- Matt Landau mlandau@bbn.com [[ They both suffer from the same incompatability. None of the symbols in /vmunix on a 386i have a leading "_". The fix is to find the nlist array in the source and remove all the underbars from the beginning of the symbol names. I have a version of top with this fix, but it hasn't been released yet. --wnl ]]
