I asked about SMP suuport earlier on the list and got a response that
plex86 didn't work under these situations. However, I've been using
plex86 successfully on my Dual PIII-450 SMP box, running 2.4.3 and then
2.4.4. I haven't seen any problems. Things function just as well as they
do on my UP machine running 2.2.17, 2.4.3, and then 2.4.4. This is with
both the older plex86 and the newer plex86-DT stuff.

Am I missing something here?
