Hi,

I have been running SuSE 10.1 on my laptop which has Intel Core Duo 1.66GHzfor the past two years but has never bothered to check the following (Duh). When I look at the cpu information from Windows XP, it shows both CPUs. But on the Linux side 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' only shows one processor as

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 14
model name      : Genuine Intel(R) CPU           T2300  @ 1.66GHz
stepping        : 8
cpu MHz         : 1000.000
cache size      : 2048 KB
fdiv_bug        : no
hlt_bug         : no
f00f_bug        : no
coma_bug        : no
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 10
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2
 ss ht tm pbe nx constant_tsc pni monitor est tm2 xtpr
bogomips        : 3330.34

Is Linux using both processors? If so how can I find out?

Thanks
