Bug Description

I'm pretty certain this is also an issue with single core systems; however, this itop does not have any provisions for parsing multiple core output from /proc/interrupts and the one column that is displayed is inaccurate. The current C implementation was written/found in 2007 and as far as I can tell hasn't been modified since.

I've attached a packaged version of kargigs perl itop(https://github.com/kargig/itop) that handles both cases and appropriately parses the /proc/interrupts output as it exists now. As I don't believe this package to be working for anyone, I propose it be replaced.

Running Ubuntu version 12.04 but the current itop package seems to fail on all active distros.
