System monitoring via vmubc on 3.2C

I just "discovered" vmubc via Nobuhira Kaminaga' summary about the VMS
monitor utility.

Downloaded, compiled under 3.2G and up in runing in a matter of moments.
Definately cool. (This on a 2100 with lots of cpu cycles free.)

However, the systems I really need to use this on is our news server and
webserver - both presently running under 3.2C. Both are heavily loaded.
The news server is another 2100 and the webserver a 3000/600. Both are busy
512 meg machines - heavy I/O, Cpu Utilization, and network I/O.

The problem is vmubc doesn't appear to work when compiled under 3.2C.
What comes up is a "blank" box - no motif-isms, just flat blue with black
holes, and acouple of non-moving color bars. No text, no menu bar or
labels. The only thing that "moves" is a piece of white in the page faults
graph area. It doesn't fail. It looks like it is failing to initialize.

This smells like a "simple" motif problem. Does any body know what parts
got moved to someplace else or weren't in the normal distribution for
3.2C? But which were there in 2.X and 3.0 and got put back in 3.2G?
All dates in the code (and tar file) imply that this was last touched
in November of 1994 - clearly? pre 3.2C time frame.

Is George Chaltas still at Digital? I'd like to know if there is an
AdvFS version and or a joint ufs/AdvFS, since we have systems that
run both.... like the news server.
