Hiya
Using gkrellm 2.2.2 with SuSE 9.2 on my workstation, I get a report of
6 users. A 'ps -ef | less' and a quick count up shows : me, root,
nobody, lp and postfix. I count that as 5 users.
I'm not happy with nobody being there and will be looking into that,
but I wonder is anyone else seeing this with gkrellm/Suse 9.2 ?
And/or does anyone have any idea why this might be happening or if
there is another way to check the number of users on the system?

what does "w -f" say?
lesleyb :0 console 10:42 ?xdm? 36.66s 0.12s -:0

(with line wrap on the 2nd line ) using KDE window manager with
thunderbird and a console screen open.
I've just booted up after being away and gkrellm currently reports 3
users. I've still got root, nobody, lp and postfix listed in a 'ps -ef'.
'w -f' results after opening a second console :
10:53:16 up 13 min, 4 users, load average: 0.38, 0.81, 1.05
USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE JCPU PCPU WHAT

lesleyb pts/4 - 10:53 0.00s 0.04s 0.00s w -f
and gkrellm shows 4 users.
My guess is a mix of how gkrellm counts users and whatever SuSE/KDE does
to open a console.
