Did you do an "ls -l /proc" and compare differences in permissions? Also I don't believe that sysctl.c is the file that deals with the process directories under /proc, I think that might be sched.c or one of the others. But I'm an extreme novice when it comes to hacking the kernel. I just gave you that as a possible "close" location. Oh, and that in no way is an indicator of bloat. Maybe you should ask Linus or Alan what needs to be modified.

Well i dont exactly have a way to talk to them, and if I did they'd probably do a great job at making me look silly and stupid. no i didn't get a chance to look too much into it, i was a bit depressed because in the config of the kernel (it asks a load of questions during compiling) i forgot to support video, lan, and my sound card. so i had to get out pretty fast. i'll look more into it tomorrow... i feel sleep coming soon.

You most certainly do have a way to talk to them. Just subscribe to the kernel mailing lists at www.kernel.org. You wouldn't have to address your question directly to Linus or Alan as there are many more people there that can answer your question but you never know, Linus or Alan just might answer your question. Ya just never know.

As far as all the questions in the kernel configuration I have a couple of RedHat tips for compiling the kernel on my voidmain site I just stuck up. One of the steps is to copy the "config" file from the installed kernel so you automatically have all of the same options turned on.
