I have an RS/6000, 7025-F50 (CHRP) with 2 Gigs of RAM that I was able to successfully install Open Suse 10.3 on this morning.

However, I don't think it is using all four processors. When I do the hardware probe, it only shows one processor. How do I get it to use all four processors?

I'm new to Suse (defecting from Ubuntu), so I'll need a little help. Is there another kernel I need to take advantage of SMP?

Thanks.

If this helps, when SuSE starts, and stuff is scrolling by, a message comes up saying, "Maximum number of processors exceeded (1)."

If this kernel supports both uniprocessor and multiple processors, how do I change it so it uses all of them?
