Start here:

as a short followup, there's this:

https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/oprofile/+question/113330

which strongly suggests that i am wasting my time looking for that
vmlinux file.  i think i'll ask about this on the ubuntu kernel

But as this kernel thingie has been going since June then write to Robert (but this may be difficult as he hasn't replied for 3 days to my e-mail to him  :-(.)

Nevertheless, search in the archives for this mail list for posts by Robert re his kernel 'course' he's put together.
