This package requires its patch to be applied before you can install it. Make sure it's unpacked before running the installation commands.
Install Procps by running the following commands:
patch -Np1 -i ../procps-2.0.7.patch && make && make XSCPT="" install && mv /usr/bin/kill /bin |
patch -Np1 -i ../procps-2.0.7.patch: This patch fixes a locale problem that makes top crash under certain locale settings.
make XSCPT="" install: This will set the Makefile variable XSCPT to an empty value so that the XConsole installation is disabled. Otherwise "Make install" tries to copy the file XConsole to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults. And that directory does not exist, because X is not installed.

free displays the total amount of free and used physical and swap memory in the system, as well as the shared memory and buffers used by the kernel.
kills sends signals to processes.
ps gives a snapshot of the current processes.
pgrep looks up processes based on name and other attributes.
pkill signals processes based on name and other attributes.
skill sends signals to process matching a criteria.
snice changes the scheduling priority for process matching a criteria.
sysctl modifies kernel parameters at runtime.
tload prints a graph of the current system load average to the specified tty (or the tty of the tload process if none is specified).
top provides an ongoing look at processor activity in real time.
vmstat reports information about processes, memory, paging, block IO, traps, and cpu activity.
