>Description:
The manual  page for systat's vmstat display is out of date.
The order of the left-hand entries  has changed; disk I/O statistics
are  the bottom-most entry, not namei translations.

There  are no pseudo-dma statistics; something that would be worth showing
on vaxes,  other systems with DZ-based serial ports, or anything using
pdma. 

I also think systat's vmstat page should  include  *seconds* in its time
field, as top does.  It's otherwise hard to tell the differcne bewteen
a completely static display and one that's locked up.


I have not compared the manpage descriptions of the other systat displays,
they may be out of date too.


>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:

Should be obvious if one reads the manpage side-by-side with a running
vmstat.
