Has anyone gotten asload and ascpu to work nicely on FreeBSD?
I tried compiling them from what must be Linux distributions with no
success yet. The closest I've come is with ascpu:
paz:~[102] ascpu &
[1] 10084
gw.apriori.net:~[103] kvm_open: /dev/mem: Permission denied
ascpu : cannot open kvm
[1] Exit 1 ascpu
The documentation for ascpu says:
"Notes: Avatar Liang <avatar@www.mmlab.cse.yzu.edu.tw>
points out: The FreeBSD version uses the kvm_XXX functions.
Using these functions requires 'kmem' group privilege. Therefore
the ascpu binary must setgid to kmem."
Not being well-versed in compiling stuff, this has me stumped.
+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+
asload just gives me a floating exception:
paz:~[101] asload &
[1] 10083
paz:~[102]
[1] Floating exception asload
+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+
If someone wouldn't mind helping me through these and guiding me through
the ports process, I'd be happy to turn back in whatever is successfully
built.
