Hi, I just compiled a 2.4.22 kernel with SMP support on Debian Woody. dmesg seems to see both CPUs, but /proc/cpuinfo shows me only one, and top -C also only shows one.

If it's not, how to I get it to use it? I checked the Documentation directory in the kernel source, but the smp docs doesn't say anything beyond compiling smp support into the kernel.
