Oh well , something must be broken...

"perf top" is working here, but if I use any "-e ...." argument, it
fails :

# perf top -e cache-misses

  Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 2 (No such file or directory).
  /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.

  Fatal: No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?

# grep PERF_EVENTS .config
CONFIG_HAVE_PERF_EVENTS=y
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y
CONFIG_HAVE_PERF_EVENTS_NMI=y

Nothing in dmesg...
