enabling SMP
 
Hi,

How could I enable SMP in openSuse 11.0?

Regards,

Maybe you want to run this first

$ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i smp

This is to check whether your running kernel has been configured to use SMP options.

Hi, Sara.y -

In other words, what hurry_hui is saying, is that you usually don't have to do *anything*. The SuSE 11 installer should detect if you have multiple CPUs, and should generally install the SMP version by default. It's easy to check (including the method hurry_hui gave you).

If, for whatever reason, you *don't* have SMP (and, of course, if your system is actually multi-core or multi-CPU), then it's easy to add: simply go into "Yast":
