Description Jesse Becker 2003-08-28 14:12:59 UTC
There is a trivial bug in the online help for wmsysmon related to which status
light indicates swapin/swapout and pagein/pageout.  For x86 compiles, the help
is ambiguous as to which pair of lights indicates what.

                        ^^^^^^^  SAME LETTERS ^^^^^^

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  run 'wmsysmon -h'
2.
3.



Expected Results:  
Distinguished between the two.  Instead of printing "W,X are Page IN/OUT, W,X
are Swap IN/OUT", it should print "W,X are Page IN/OUT, Y,Z are Swap IN/OUT".

should be sent upstream

I have added a patch to the latest ebuild which addresses this issue. :)
