[OT] Gkrellm (was: RE: libgtop gone?)

Um, can someone provide a link as to what libgtop is supposed to do? Is it just a graphical /usr/local/bin/top? I can't believe I didn't know about gkrellm until recently, which will cover all the rest of your system monitoring desires (mine monitors my wireless link strenght, for instance) http://web.wt.net/~billw/gkrellm/gkrellm.html According to the FAQ... Quote: To pronounce GKrellM say the "G" then "krellm" as in bell. The name stands for (with a little flexibility, take your pick): GNU (or Gtk) Krell Monitors (or Meters). If you have seen the movie Forbidden Planet, you might recall the Krell had a room with wall to wall meters for monitoring their power systems, and that is what I was thinking of when I came up with the GKrellM name. :unQuote ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the designated recipient(s) named above.

Re: pb with theoryx5 ppms archname

This I think was done so that people wouldn't mistakenly install ppm packages for builds 6xx, which report the same ARCHITECTURE but which are binary incompatable with 8xx. The http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/ repository should work with ActivePerl 8xx (and also the recent Perl-5.8-win32-bin Perl/Apache distribution from ftp://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/pub/other/), but for a self-compiled perl-5.8 used with the CPAN PPM distribution, a change in PPM.pm is needed - let me know (off-list) if you'd like a copy of the needed patch. -- best regards, randy

DBM ties within Apache under Mod Perl

Hey, One of the things I understood mod_perl allowed you to do is to tie a Hash/DBM to the top apache process, so that it's always available throughout the other apache processes? Is that right? Is there a good tutorial somewhere (or is it simple enough to show me in an email?) Thing I want to do is this.. We've just launched a huge site which was never very well designed/structured etc, and we don't reall have time right now to re-do it... We're now getting steady traffic (by accident really) and of course there's quite a high drop off... I want to add a simple popup that appears when someone leaves the site.. What it would do is simply ask .. "Are you leaving the site because.. a) It's not what I'm looking for b) I don't like the look of it c) I was just browsing d) You're too expensive e) Leave me alone and don't bother me" Now I was going to simply link the options to a 'Thankyou' page with a query string we can grep out of the logs at a later date, but while discussing this with a friend last night he said that if he had bothered to vote he would like to know the average voting, so the thankyou page could include a little bargraph of the votes so far. It needs to be very quick (cos I don't want to unneccasarily load the server) but I think all I want to do is +1 to corresponding value in a DBM when they vote and return a graph from each of the values in the DBM in the thanks page. (PS. Do people think this is a bad idea from the start? Would you vote? Or would it just annoy you immensly? ie. is is a bit too much of an intrusion?)
