Hmm,

cvsup# mptables
mptables: Command not found.
cvsup# man -k mptables
mptables: nothing appropriate

and the man page for top says that _s os:

       -S     Show system processes in the  display.   Normally,  
	   system pro- cesses  such  as  the pager and the swapper are not shown.  
	   This option makes them visible.

Am I mising something?
