- As the FAQ and other docs mention, anytime you do a kernel upgrade or change
- the system level stuff ps should be recompiled.
-
- You can do a ps -U <unstripped kernel image>
-
- The unstripped kernel image is usually in /usr/src/linux/tools/system.
-
- If that doesn't work, you will need to recompile the ps package. It should
- be available from any linux ftp site.
