Thank you for writing.

So the issue here is actually due to the virtualization in use on our VPS
servers.
We use 'linux-vserver' on our VPS servers. Please note that one of the
major disadvantages of the linux-vserver package is that many hardware
related system calls, as well as /proc and /sys nodes are left
unvirtualized.

As these nodes and /proc filesystem entries are not correctly
virtualized, calls to /proc will most likely result in an error, or
erroneous results.

If you have any further questions, please respond to this email.

Sincerely,

Erik N.
