[plug] Linux, SMP, etc ...

[Trevor Phillips]

Well, I've got my Beast at work up & running! ^_^

ABit BP6 MB with Dual Celeron 400's... Runs niiiice...

So, can anyone please give me any hints, and point me towards any helpful
resources? 
In particular:
  - What tool do you recommend for monitoring? I've thrown on xosview, but
wouldn't mind SMP-aware TOP. Seems you need to patch the procps utils source;
sounds messy; no nice Debian package for it? Does it need Kernel patching, or
is 2.2.10 fine for it?
  - PSet: Is it worth it? Is there a Debian version? Does 2.2.10 need a patch
for it (and where is it?) The webpage
(http://isunix.it.ilstu.edu/~thockin/pset/) has a 2.2.5 patch only, it
seems...
  - Where can I find info on monitoring system temperature, etc, for Linux?
(Board has 3 sensors; 1 for each CPU and one "system" one.
  - Any other tips/resources?

Thanks ...
