[Linux-disciples] Unknown HZ value

[Stephen R Laniel]

I just upgraded my kernel on the Debian machine; now it's
Linux JeffTweedy 2.6.6-1-686 #1 Wed May 12 14:57:57 EST 2004 i686 GNU/Linux

When I run 'top', I get this puzzling error:

Unknown HZ value! (71) Assume 100.

A little googling suggested that I needed to upgrade the
procps package, so I upgraded it out of unstable and fixed
the problem. The 'top' display is now quite a bit different
(different column headings), but the error's gone.

I just thought I'd pass along this little bit of info, both
for our Google reader(s?) and for anyone else who's seen
this.
