It would appear that it is being confused by "suse" as the OS name. I am
getting similar errors for vmstat. 

Thanks,

OK, I looked at the BB 1.9e and it seems that it has separate OS
names for SuSE, Red Hat, Debian and Mandrake. Hobbit already knows
about Debian and Red Hat, so you can just add a couple of lines
to lib/misc.c to make it recognize "suse" and "mandrake" also:

Around line 48 of hobbit-4.0-RC2/lib/misc.c add these two lines:

        else if (strcasecmp(osname, "suse") == 0)        result = OS_LINUX;
        else if (strcasecmp(osname, "mandrake") == 0)    result = OS_LINUX;

Rebuild it with "make; make install", restart Hobbit and it should be
OK.

I'll add this for the next release.

Great!, that took care of it.

Thanks,
