[iPAQ] Familiar: "Floating point exception" in "top" on X

Hi guys,

i found a small, repeatable thingie in the current Familiar distro (0.3):

grab the "top" utility from Intimate (this might not be entirely kasher,
i'll try again with my own compiled "top" once i finish installing the
arm-linux toolchain on my main machine).

on the iPAQ, open a terminal and start "top". Runs fine.

Now, change the refresh rate to 0.01 second (S .01 [enter]) and
watch the poor "top" die a horrible "floating point exception" death...

As a cross-check, running "top" with 0.01s refresh in a ssh session over ppp
works beautifully. No exceptions, not even floating point ones.

Soooo... might there be a problem in X or Blackbox?

ALSO, while i'm here, is there any reason why the "nwfpe" module (in "lsmod")
seems to think it is used "-1" times? That is an awful large number of
times, methinks.

Have a nice day!

Real
