I've just pushed out a small change to /sys/src/9/pc/realmode.c that allows monitor=vesa to work on multiprocessor pcs without *nomp being defined in plan9.ini (i.e., you can use all available processors [or cores] and still use vesa mode). I've also pushed out new kernels, so the distribution built tonight should include this fix.
