Linux Benchmarks

Hi, I am having a problem trying to work out how to run this bechmark on my system. When I execute ./Run, it tells me Flavour of Unix is not known, and to define Flavour in Run script. But I don't know where to define it.

I am using Gentoo Linux, and a 2.4 kernel.

regards Greg

Did you recompile the binary?

If I extract, and don't compile, and just type ./Run, I get this:

Wed Mar 10 19:34:43 EST 2004
~/unixbench/bm
gklofa@beast: pts/1: 15 files 277Kb -> ./Run
-bash: ./Run: Permission denied



Then, if I compile, this is the output of make:
Wed Mar 10 19:34:46 EST 2004

gklofa@beast: pts/1: 15 files 277Kb -> make

And then when I type ./Run:

~/unixbench/bm
gklofa@beast: pts/1: 15 files 277Kb -> ./Run
Flavor of UNIX is not known.
Please define FLAVOR in Run script





So using the existing binary, or re-compiling with make does not work.

Thanks
Greg

Hi Greg,
nano -w Run

Find the line that says FLAVOR=""
change it to FLAVOR="Gentoo Linux"

Happy Benchmarking

P.S See you in the gentoo forums soon :-)

Hi Guys,
I got the benchmark to run, no worries there.
It runs through all it's tests, then ...

No Result :-)

Here is an example

Any ideas ??

thanks
mAAddog

Hi Guys,
Found the problem, in the Run file it states that you must have /usr/bin/time installed.
For gentoo users you need to emerge sys-apps/time.

Another problem too, possibly a bug ?

My System gets a low score on one of the copy tests, i think that the score is incorrect.

I will run it again tommorow when i get time. If it works i will post back properly in the required format.

Thanks
mAAddog

Thanks mAAddog,
I should have thought to post this problem on your orriginal post.
Also, I can't believe I missed that line! I read almost all the rest of the file, and there it is up the top, second line.

Will post up my results soon, just in the middle of compiling the latest BMG gnome 2.6 beta.

Thanks Greg
