Summarizing the distro offerings: Fedoras/SuSE offer mtr/-gtk (X), Debians offer mtr (X)/-tiny, FreeBSD offers mtr (X)/-nox11, and NetBSD offers mtr only without X. So mtr is ambiguous as it may mean with/without X. Alternatives mtr-tiny/nox11 and mtr-gtk have the advantages of being unambiguous and already in use elsewhere, unless there are reasons to prefer to follow Fedora for consistency in naming? -- Take care.
