top and friend tools pb on hppa since 2.6.10-pa7

[Joel Soete <soete.joel@tiscali.be>]

Hello all,

runing unstable debian on hppa boxes and development kernels (2.6.10...11-rc), I encounter following pb with top:
(since 2.6.10-pa7)
top - 13:12:49 up 58 min,  2 users,  load average: 1.00, 1.03, 1.20
Tasks:  54 total,   1 running,  53 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu0  :  1.4% us,  0.0% sy,  0.0% ni,  0.0% id,  0.0% wa, 98.6% hi,  0.0% si
Mem:    512864k total,   508144k used,     4720k free,   448268k buffers
Swap:   131832k total,        0k used,   131832k free,     9856k cached

in place of such (with 2.6.10-pa6):

top - 14:42:23 up 3 min,  2 users,  load average: 0.53, 0.56, 0.25
Tasks:  47 total,   1 running,  46 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu(s):  1.0% us,  1.3% sy,  0.0% ni, 97.4% id,  0.3% wa,  0.0% hi,  0.0% si
Mem:    512828k total,    50900k used,   461928k free,     3656k buffers
Swap:   131832k total,        0k used,   131832k free,    27888k cached

This pb occures during the transition from 2.6.10-pa6 to pa7 when:
"Log message:
	2.6.10-pa7:
	
	Switch to generic IRQ code
[...]
"
I so tried to use current kernel header:
/usr/include/asm -> /usr/src/linux-2.6.10-p10/include/asm (-> /usr/src/linux-2.6.10-p10/include/asm-parisc)
/usr/include/linux -> /usr/src/linux-2.6.10-p10/include/linux

(after the build of the kernel)

to recompile procps dpkg; unfortunately it doesn't help.

What did I missed? Any idea?

Thanks in advance,
	Joel

PS0: same pb in 32 or 64bit up or smp kernels;

PS1: Why /dev/null become a file during the build of the package???

PS2: how can I change localy this:

"Cpu(s):  1.0% us,  1.3% sy,  0.0% ni, 97.4% id,  0.3% wa,  0.0% hi,  0.0% si"

into something like:
" CPU    USER    SYS  NICE ....
    0    1.0%    1.3% 0.0% ...."
