This is probably the reason why you cannot have graphs.
Do you have gd installed ? (gd and gd-devel if you are using packages)
If yes, what version ?
If you have gdlib-config installed, check the --with-gdlib_config_dir opt=
ion for
configure. And if you still have compilation problems, consider upgrading=
 to 0.103.2
that was released today :)

This is OK :)

Probably because your plugins don't output performance data ? I let Ben o=
r somebody else
help you on that : I'm quite bad to help on that subject :)

You can use the -c option and the $prefix/etc/perfparse.cfg.template file=
 for your
configuration file. You can also use the --show_config option that prints=
 the options
effectively used (the template config file may not be up to date)
All the perfparse tools recognize the -c and --show_config options.

Try again with a correct configuration file :)

Upgrade to 0.103.2 where some minor bugs were fixed, including one on a p=
roblem with gd :)
