Hi Emmanuel, Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . Please then run following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux 272209 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message.

[Bug 272209] Re: oprofile doesn't start
I encountered the same problem with Jaunty/UNR on an Atom CPU. With this CPU, the oprofile kernel module also reports a cpu_type of i386/arch_perfmon, which is not a problem in itself, but requires a patch to oprofile (fix in in oprofile CVS, after the 0.9.4 release). Linus filed a bug report on Fedora, a separate patch is available: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=497230 http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/devel/oprofile/oprofile-iaperf.patch?view=co The patch works for me when applied to oprofile 0.9.4 from sourceforge. ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #497230 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=497230 -- oprofile doesn't start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272209 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Stefan, I grepped the upstream kernel sources and the only mention of "p6_mobile" is in arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c and this file is identical to the one in ubuntu/ubuntu-jaunty.git. The git log of arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c claims the detection was fixed for p6_mobile. -- oprofile doesn't start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272209 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

According https://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=2656745&group_id=16191&atid=116191 this is a bug in ubuntu kernel wrongly reporting i368/p6_mobile as i386/p6.
