This is a sampling profiler that uses a kernel module, sysprof-module, to generate stacktraces which are then interpreted by the userspace program "sysprof". - The profiler uses a kernel module, so it is Linux specifc - There is no auto* stuff. Just type "make" and hope for the best. - It does not work on Linux 2.6. Feel free to port it and send me the patch. - You need gtk+ 2.4.0 or better, and you need libglade Søren
