Hyperthreading and FC2 & 'top' command

[malachii]

Hello All,

I have a hyper-threading pentium 4 2.8 processor.

I'm using the vmzlinuz-2.6.5-1.358smp kernel.

I just noticed when I run the 'top' command that I'm only seeing one processor. I know that at the office I have the same CPU and see two rows for CPU 1 and 2 (well, 'virtual' CPU's anyhow).

What's up?

Thanks,

Mal.

I would issue a bug rapport on this one.

I have no problems with that kernel. Can you be more specific about your general hardware? Particularly before submitting a bug to bugzilla. (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/)

Is hyperthreading enabled on the BIOS? It's unlikely to be a kernel bug.....

Yes, the bios has hyperthreading enabled. Is there some way to get information about the *currently running* kernel that would help you guys determine the problem? Some command, virtual file contents, etc?

Regarding the hardware, it's a new-ish (6 months old) intel motherboard, with 2.8 ghz chip (with hyperthreading). Short of opening the box and reading the model, I can't give you more details at the moment - unless there's some other way to get motherboard/chipset information inside the OS?

Thanks,

Mal.

cat /proc/cpu

I have 2x xeon 2.8's and mine show up as 4 procs. :eek:
