Thanks. That neatly identifies the cause of the problem. For your system /proc/cpuinfo has: cpu : RS64-IV (sstar) And currently we only check for: power3|i-star|s-star|power4|power4+|ppc970*|power5|power5+ I have added detection for your system and have also queued that change for the next stable point release. Thanks for reporting the issue and providing the needed info. Cheers, FJP
