Hey gang, Just for the heck of it I did a 'w' in a console and this is what came up: 11:41am up 1 day, 3:11, 3 users, load average: 1.01, 1.05, 1.01 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT <me> :0 console Sat 8am ? 0.00s ? - <me> pts/0 - Sat 8am 27:00m 0.00s ? - <me> pts/1 - 11:41am 0.00s 0.04s 0.01s w What the heck is this? I'm the only user. What's pts? Is this maybe something that's using some RAM without my knowledge? Using procman, it shows seti using cpu cycles, and everything else is using RAM (which is what's supposed to be happening with linux, correct?), but why or what is it that's making it show 3 users on here? Any suggestions please, will be appreciated. John -- Computers and air-conditioners are the same... Open up windows and they're useless.
