Thank you very much for the reply! This is a physical machine, not virtual.
File monit returns:
monit: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically
linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, not stripped

After i enabled the web interface cpu usage monitoring decided to start
working, is that supposed to be a requirement?
