Actually we have a repository for hosting Gmond C DSO metric modules here: http://github.com/ganglia/gmond_c_modules BTW, since you have been writing quite a few C modules, do you think you can contribute some documentations/notes for the Wiki? http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ganglia/wiki We have some notes on writing Python modules but not so much on C modules. > 1.

I see -- just curious. Obviously it would be cool if there is a 'generic' package available in the upstream distribution, but I guess if you're okay with it, you might want to contribute whatever package you have to http://github.com/ganglia/ganglia_contrib such that others do not need to re-invent the wheel. > 2.

Here's an archive of the email you sent: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg05901.html I believe it's supposed to count the number of "bash" processes, however, I didn't think it worked on my OS. Anyhow, I guess the important thing is that your module is no longer segfaulting...
