Well, I'm currently working on this - but it will take about 2-3 weeks
to have a working version of libgtop for Linux and FreeBSD including gtop
- - then one could easily port libgtop to Solaris and everything should
work fine.

Most of the applets that use /proc should work under Linux and FreeBSD
with libgtop v0.25 which I'm going to release at the beginning of next
week if everything works fine.
