I notice that if I try to run top it dies with a segmentation fault (or memory fault, depending on which login shell I use). Sometimes it will start, but display scrambled output for several seconds before crashing. It runs fine if I log in as 'root' however, but will not run if I 'su' to root in any shell. I'm not exactly sure when this changed as I haven't tried to run top in a while. Any ideas? Thanks Randy DuCharme
