[by the way, 'procps' is a package which implements ps, w, free, etc. using
 the /proc filesystem for 0.99 and above. If you still use the old ps
 package you should upgrade to the more elegant (and supported) procps. -mdw]

I have put yet another release of the procps suite on tsx-11.  This
has a few more man pages and several bugs are fixed.  If you didn't
like the last version, get this one, as you will like it much better.
I solicit bug reports on this.

tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/BETA/procps/procps-0.4.tar.Z

Note the addition of a version number.  The version is rather
arbitrary, and at the last moment, I decided to make it correspond
with the current kernel patchlevel at least right now.  I don't expect
it to stay that way.

Note that the bug with <32K pid's is still there, becase it is a bug
in the proc filesystem.  It has been fixed, though, for the next
patchlevel or release of linux.
