Using Ubuntu 9.10
I am installing LTTng Kernel, but facing one problem with kernel configurations:

In installation guide it is mentioned that:
make menuconfig

go to the "General setup" section
Select the following options :

Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers

Activate markers

Immediate value optimization (optional)
Select <Exit>
Select <Exit>
Select <Yes>
But in my case situation is different.
Inside General Setup options are :

(n) Local version - append to kernel release
[ ] Automatically append version information to the version string
[ ] Support for paging of anonymous memory (swap)
[ ] System V IPC
[ ] POSIX Message Queues
[ ] BSD Process Accounting
[ ] Export task/process statistics through netlink (EXPERIMENTAL)
[ ] Auditing support
[ ] Kernel .config support

Kernel->user space relay support (formerly relayfs)
(n) Initramfs source file(s)
(0) User ID to map to 0 (user root)
(0) Group ID to map to 0 (group root)
[ ] Optimize for size (Look out for broken compilers!)
[ ] Configure standard kernel features (for small systems) --->
[ ] Linux Trace Toolkit Instrumentation Support
I searched each option of kernel configuration inside and outside of general setup but following 2 settings are not available:

Activate markers

Immediate value optimization (optional)
although i found prompt for development and /or incomplete code/drivers inside code maturity level option. (ie; Code maturity level options → [ ] Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers)

I am new in using ubuntu and specially terminal,
so I am looking for a detailed response..
