http://stage.maemo.org/pool/maemo4.0/free/x/xrestop/xrestop_0.4-1osso1_armel.deb

However, when I try to run xrestop I get "Error opening terminal: xterm."

Or screen. Or vt100.  Not sure how to proceed.  Might be something to do with a /usr/lib/terminfo; do I need to install curses or something? Curses.

libncurses5 is already there.
HOWEVER, after googling I tried |xrestop -t 1 -b > mem.log| and that gave me output that looked like it might be useful to somebody.  So maybe it's just installing the above two debs.

Alice,  Are these packages acceptable?

Attachment: mobile.config updates

Added the linux/mac split, added xres to the linux tp4 counters.
Removed a bunch of end-of-line whitespace with a |:1,$s, *$,,| .

After this my staging runs all failed trying to find unix_counters; looks like I needed to update bcontroller.py?

You must still have a reference to unix_counters somewhere, which no longer exist in the talos code - since they have been split into linux and mac counters.

Yup, sorry for my misreading.  Wondering how this is running else where with that oversight.
