This is expected behavior if your kernel changed but top wasn't recompiled. You need to re-compile and re-install libkvm from scratch, and then re-compile and re-install top. You don't see this on other machines because you don't upgrade the kernels that often. :) Nate -- nate@sri.com | Research Engineer, SRI Intl. - Montana Operations nate@trout.mt.sri.com | Loving life in God's country, the great state of work #: (406) 449-7662 | Montana (all the crazies are now in jail 'cept us home #: (406) 443-7063 | natives). - Fly fishing fanatic!
