HI there, I cannot install LTTng modules (see lttng.org ). I'm using Gentoo with kernel 3.0.27-rt46 on Pandaboard(OMAP4430 ARMv7). the problem is: I crosscompiled the linux kernel and Gentoo stage3 from ARM and they work; whereas I crosscompiled LTTng2.0.2 modules and I copied them (all "*.ko" files) to pandaboard (directory   /lib/modules). Then I tried using #depmode -a, but it fails (killed). Look hereunder:

localhost ~ # lttng -bash: lttng: command not found localhost ~ # cd /lib/modules localhost modules # ls                                                         3.0.27-rt46 localhost modules # cd 3.0.27-rt46/ localhost 3.0.27-rt46 # ls                                                     build              modules.ccwmap       modules.inputmap   modules.softdep linux             modules.dep          modules.isapnpmap  modules.symbols misc              modules.dep.bin      modules.ofmap      modules.symbols.bin modules.alias     modules.devname      modules.pcimap     modules.usbmap modules.alias.bin modules.ieee1394map  modules.seriomap localhost 3.0.27-rt46 # depmod -a Killed localhost 3.0.27-rt46 # cd misc localhost misc # ls                                                            lib lttng-lib-ring-buffer.ko                                                       lttng-ring-buffer-client-discard.ko                                             lttng-ring-buffer-client-mmap-discard.ko                                        lttng-ring-buffer-client-mmap-overwrite.ko                                      lttng-ring-buffer-client-overwrite.ko                                           lttng-ring-buffer-metadata-client.ko                                            lttng-ring-buffer-metadata-mmap-client.ko                                       lttng-statedump.ko                                                              lttng-tracer.ko                                                                 probes localhost misc # depmod -a Killed

So the question is: how to install LTTng packages on embedded gentoo on the Pandaboard? Any idea about patching the kernel ( lttng.org told me the lttng2.0.2 is not a patch but addtional modules, differently from the previous version that was a kernel patch)? So is there a way to use LTTng on Gentoo? The official site has only instructions for Debian, but I use Gentoo. So it is a Gentoo question...
