See, that is the thing. The "f" is for forest. If I do "ps f" I get the 
forest view. If I do "ps m" I can see all the threads. If I do "ps fm" I 
get an error "ERROR: Thread display conflicts with forest display." This 
used to not be the case. With Red Hat 9 I could do "ps fm", and can 
_still_ do this with Red Hat Advanced Server 3.

I think I'll send a message to the devel list.

Thanks for the reply though.
