CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT is not set in kernel 2.6.22-14-sparc64-smp

Hi Alex,

It looks like this is not set for the sparc kernel config in Hardy either. I'm reasigning to the kernel team. Thanks.

I'm opened a new task against the actively developed kernel. However, I'm closing the report against linux-source-2.6.22 as it does not meet the criteria for a stable release update. You can learn more about the stable release update process at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates . Thanks!

So, if I understood correctly, it should be fixed on Hardy kernel but no update will be made to Gutsy. That's fine with me, acct is not so urgent for me and I will upgrade to Hardy, so there's no problem :)

Just let me know if you want me to try any sparc64 kernel.

Stefan, please enable this in the sparc config. Not sure why it was different than the other architectures.

Fix commited as b88d9e567ef6d47e25a6895b021b461b2bb4cd40.

This bug was fixed in the package linux - 2.6.24-5.8
