Actually there is only one System.map and one kernel on the system (both from
the same compile run) so I'm quite certain that the right file is present.

Here is what ps's complaint looks like:

hajhouse@nitro-9:~$ ps
{__cpu_logical_map} {__cpu_logical_map_R__ver___cpu_logical_map}
Warning: /boot/System.map-2.2.17 does not match kernel data.
{__cpu_logical_map} {__cpu_logical_map_R__ver___cpu_logical_map}
Warning: /usr/src/linux/System.map does not match kernel data.
  PID TTY          TIME CMD
[... further ps output]

I did not know this, thanks!
