Re: [Bubblemon-list] Problems under 2.6 Kernel?

[Johan Walles]

Bubblemon uses libgtop2 for all system load measurements, RAM / Swap included. 
libgtop2 gets its data from /proc/meminfo.  The format of /proc/meminfo has 
changed from the 2.4 series to the 2.6 series, and libgtop2 cannot parse 
/proc/meminfo any more.

This seems to have been fixed in Gnome2.4 (according to 
"http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104747";), and in Debian 
("http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=201876";).  I don't know about 
the status for other versions / distributions.

Glad you like the applet :-).

  Cheers //Johan
