The K Desktop Environment

2.2. Requirements

In order to successfully compile KTop, you need the KDE 1.x and Qt 1.4x. All required libraries as well as KTop itself can be found on ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/.

At the moment the following flavors of UNIX are supported:

Linux 2.x

For KTop to work it is necessary to compile the Linux-Kernel with the /proc-Filesystem enabled. This is the default setting and most Linux-Distribution have it already.

FreeBSD

The KTop program needs to be owned by the kmem group and needs to have the setgid bit set.

Support for other platforms is in preparation. Your help is greatly appreciated.
