Subject:   SMP kernel for MSI 694D Pro
Message-ID:  <BCDFE802.1875A%Shane@007Marketing.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I am looking for some assistance in building an SMP kernel for an MSI dual
PIII board, model is 694D Pro.

I have built a new kernel (5.2.1) that boots, but doesn't appear to use both
procs.

Running top only shows one cpu line in the header - the entry for top
switches between cpu0 and cpu1 (in the state column) so there is some
recognition of the 2 procs just not spreading the load.

I am importing multiple times into mysql to check load - the best I can do
is get 45% idle.

This is the start of the dmesg output - seems to see them both...
