No, no, no, no, no. I am running a uniprocessor kernel on a uniprocessor machine and I know that. I assume that were I running SMP I could see the different CPUs in the output from top. (I would have done that immediately on getting an SMP machine to admire it!) What *I* was wondering was where I might see multiple CPU information in the /proc file system. As far as I know, top only looks in the /proc file system to get its info anyway, and as top is designed for human consumption, it seemed cleaner, faster, and prettier to get the CPU count from the /proc file system directly. The question then is: where in /proc? I was looking around hoping to find a hint of where such information might land in /proc, were I to be runnging on an SMP machine. I mean, I can see where my USB bus is likely to show up were I running a kernel that understood my USB hardware (/proc/bus). I was hoping to find something like, say, "/proc/cpus/cpu0" and infer that a "/proc/cpus/cpu1" would show up there if I had a second CPU. I didn't find that. (Nor do I have a second CPU.) -kb, the Kent who is still curious where this info might lie if he had additional CPUs. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
