Try rebuilding the source RPM to create a PPC binary RPM. First,
download the source RPM:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/7.1/en/powertools/i386/SRPMS/slmon-0.4.0-1.src.rpm
Now, as root, execute the following command:
rpm --rebuild slmon-0.4.0-1.src.rpm
The RPM should be built and deposited at:
/usr/src/rpm/RPMS/ppc/slmon-0.4.0-1.ppc.rpm
Move the RPM wherever you want and install it as you would any other RPM.
If the rebuild process doesn't work, you probably need to install a
library and its development headers. The slmon web site says it
needs libgtop and slang installed. I had both installed already and
had no problems building and installing slmon as described above.
