Oops. The "poll" state was according to the output from top by the way.

bmon starts but the screen is totally frozen and no keys are processed. 
I have to kill it (i'm lazy and tend to use killall, so `killall iftop` 
gets rid of it just fine)

Output from ps immediately after quitting iftop:

(root at df)/home/mrboo# ps aux | grep iftop
root   3038  0.0  0.7  2584 1800  p0  SL    4:20AM   0:00.00 iftop
root   3039  0.0  0.7  2584 1800  p0  IL    4:20AM   0:00.01 iftop
After about 10 seconds or so it changes to both of them being "IL".


Output from top after quitting iftop:

 3039 root     152   0  2584K  1720K poll     0:00  0.00%  0.00% iftop
 3038 root     152   0  2584K  1720K poll     0:00  0.00%  0.00% iftop

Output from ps while bmon is apparently stuck:

(root at df)/home/mrboo# ps aux | grep bmon
root  53311  0.0  0.5  1684 1264  v0  SL+   4:29AM   0:00.01 bmon
And after about 10 seconds, again, or so this changes to "IL+".


Output from top while bmon is stuck:

Seems to be alternating between:

33855 root     152   0  1684K  1256K nanslp   0:00  0.00%  0.00% bmon

and

33855 root     152   0  1684K  1256K RUN      0:00  0.08%  0.05% bmon



Is anyone else able to reproduce this?
