Re: oprofile 2.5.42 patch running on PIII machine

[William C. <wc...@nc...>]

I tried the oprofile 2.5.42 on the local athlon machine I have. The 
kernel was configured the same with the exception it was configured for 
Athlon rather than PIII. The kernel built and booted. The module 
installed, but doesn't provide anything in the /dev/oprofile directory.

I haven't looked around yet to see what is going wrong.
