requirements:
openGL lib, libmosix
inetd/xinetd
.....you do not really need inetd or xinetd
because now you can also run the mosstatd-daemon
as a regular server-process. 


about the installation:
The 3dmon-package contains a server (the mosstatd daemon)
which has to be installed on one node which belongs
to your openMosix cluster. It will be started automatically
by a xinetd-service or has to be started manually by its
init-script as a standalone server process.

The 3d-view "3dmosmon" connects to that server and gets the
data for the 3d-display.
You can run 3dmosmon (the 3d-view) also on a non-openMosix node
(from outside your cluster)
The 3dmosmon binary needs therefor the servername as a
commandline-parameter e.g.

   3dmosmon [servers_hostname]

Anyways the automatic setup-procedure will install both
(mosstatd + 3dmosmon) on the system and you could simply
execute:

   3dmosmon localhost

after successfull installation.
(both binaries will be installed in /usr/bin)


To install from the source-tarball:
-download 3dmon.tar.gz and unzip/untar it in /usr/local
-cd into the 3dmon directory
-execute
   ./setup


To install the RPM (for RH)
-download the 3dmon.rpm
-execute
   rpm -ihv 3dmon.rpm



Howto use it:
Set your DISPLAY variable correct and execute:

   3dmosmon localhost

You should now see a nice 3d-view.
It spins automatically around until you press "r" or 
the right-mouse button which will "enter the flying" mode.
You can now move around by pressing the control keys:
w	for up
s	for down
a	for left
d	for right

or your mouse buttons:
left button	move on
middle button	move back
right button	toggle "flying"-mode (centers the view and spin it)

By default 3dmosmon display the load of the nodes in your cluster.
pressing 'm' shows a memory-overview
pressing 'u' shows a util-overview
pressing 'l' shows the load-view again


have fun + fly into your openMosix cluster
