Sorry, forgot to say, that I've got both of them in my kernel config file, i.e. "SMP" and "apic" - however I don't get the characteristic "CPU... launched" messages upon boot. This brings me to another point: What's the best way (besides checking /var/log/messages) to tell whether SMP is active? Does "top" display cpu load for hyperthreading (as opposed to multiprocessor) systems too? -ewald _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
