[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /boot/config-2.6.18-5-686 | grep CONFIG_NR_CPUS CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8 This was the "vanilla" config also. If you want more CPUs, you will need to compile. greetings P.D. be careful with top, if you press '1', on a 25 lines term, with 16 cpus, you only will see the headers, and not process information :-) P.D.2 on top, if you press 'f', then 'j', then 'enter' you will see a new column titled 'P', where you will see the CPU that is using each process. Press 'W' to make it permanent. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
