Somehow i don't have the X option for my Unix server .

Code:
bash-3.00$ ps -efx | grep -v '^.\{41\} [ 1-2][0-9]:[0-5][0-9] '
ps: illegal option -- x
usage: ps [ -aAdeflcjLPyZ ] [ -o format ] [ -t termlist ]
        [ -u userlist ] [ -U userlist ] [ -G grouplist ]
        [ -p proclist ] [ -g pgrplist ] [ -s sidlist ] [ -z zonelist ]
  'format' is one or more of:
        user ruser group rgroup uid ruid gid rgid pid ppid pgid sid taskid ctid
        pri opri pcpu pmem vsz rss osz nice class time etime stime zone zoneid
        f s c lwp nlwp psr tty addr wchan fname comm args projid project pset

Yes, some use w and sometimes you need an alternate path to an xpg4 version. I have no o option, but for me it works without the x, just less command info.
