No.  Fedora 9 is using 2.6.25 (latest is 2.6.25.10-86.fc9).  As I

like this causes the /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled file to not exist. My
impression is that the kernel config is a result of using
CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION which is not compatible with compat VDSO.

Tested this with a fresh install of Fedora 9 in a vmware host.

Got a kernel version of 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 and it seems that at least there the /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled is present.

Have you tried giving the vdso setting as kernel parameter at boot time?

Are you running Fedora on x86-64 or x86-32?

Yes, you're probably missing the compat_vdso mode in your kernel, but I find it interesting that for me a fresh fedora 9 install works on a 32 bit guest system... perhaps the kernel configuration difference between the 64bit and 32bit architectures?

The same problem has been reported with Debian Lenny, however, I get the same results (/proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled present) installing that on a vmware host.
