ps warning message

[Costas Magkos <kmag@lab.epmhs.gr>]

Hi all,

I am running woody on a SPARCstation 10 with kernel from testing:

# uname -a
Linux foo 2.4.24-sparc32 #1 Fri Jan 30 16:04:55 EST 2004 sparc unknown

When I run ps I get the following two lines before the actual output.

# ps ax
{iommu_get_scsi_sgl_pflush} {___f_mmu_get_scsi_sgl}
Warning: /boot/System.map-2.4.24-sparc32 does not match kernel data.

  82 ?        SW     0:23 [kjournald]
  83 ?        SW     0:01 [kjournald]

Does anyone know how severe is this warning? How can I eliminate it?

Thanks in advance.
