man kvm(3)
NAME
kvm - kernel memory interface
If you check out the above man page, the reason for the following will
become clear. While in X, su to root and you will notice that xload runs
like the happy client it is. Look at the perms for /dev/kmem--look at
the perms for /usr/X11R6/bin/xload...
cd /usr/X11R6/bin
chgrp kmem xload
chmod 2755 xload
Refrigerate for 2 hours.
Serve with fresh garnish.
