[Quantian-general] Load not being distributed continued...

[David Hadley]

Sorry, I should have said this in the original post:

To say that there is no load distribution is not quite true. According
to openMosixmigmon, one or two processes are being distributed but the
processes that I start (e.g. R or folding at home) that are more CPU
intensive do not even seem to appear in the openMosixmigmon, so I
couldn't even manually drag the process to one of the clients.

Thanks again!
