Description T. Ribbrock 2005-08-10 09:44:12 UTC 
The version of wmSMPmon that is included with SuSE Linux 10.0 beta1 as part of
the package "WindowMaker-applets-1.0-659.i586.rpm" is an old version (2.1). This
version does not support kernel 2.6 and as a result crashes immediately when run.

A new version of this applet has been released a couple of days ago: wmSMPmon
3.0. At the same time, the app has got a new maintainer (me...) and a new home page:

http://lancre.ribbrock.org/wmSMPmon/
(see also: http://freshmeat.net/projects/wmsmpmon/ )

The new version has been adapted to support kernel 2.6 as well and should
therefore run fine. If possible at this point in time, it might be an idea to
replace the outdated version in "WindowMaker-applets" with the current one.

Cheerio,

Thomas

Thank you for the report.

Andreas, I think it can be safely updated. There are no dependent packages.

Vladimir: I agree, go ahead.

> wmSMPmon is updated

Great, thanks! <nitpick mode>"rpm -qi WindowMaker-applets" does not list the new
maintainer of wmSMPmon, though...</nitpick mode> :-)

The author list is now updated too.
