I run into this 5 years later. I'm running kernels 2.6.32-5-686 and 2.6.38-bpo.2-686, and I notice it still doesn't work, while iotop does work. The kernel build configuration options iotop depends on are on in both kernels: CONFIG_TASKSTATS=y CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT=y CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING=y CONFIG_VM_EVENT_COUNTERS=y Shouldn't this be enough to make acct work? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
