Well if you did a fresh install, then it can't be old ps and new
proc. But if it started when you did a new kernel, maybe your
config is wrong. Do you have
options PROCFS
in your config?
If you can why don't you try rebooting an old kernel (either the last
one or the generic), and see if ps works. If it does. Then you've
got a config problem.
