What are the supported number of CPU's with SuSE 9.2? Is there official support for > 2 CPU's? > 4? Thanks, James T. Richardson, Jr.
AFAIK it can support upto 256 processors. As it can run on a SGI altrix server which has 256 processors. On Apr 6, 2005 4:07 PM, James T. Richardson, Jr. <jrichardson@x-iss.com> wrote:

FWIW, I have a dual Pentium 4 (Xeon) system with hyperthreading turned on, and SuSE 9.1 sees four processors. Buddy Coffey Advanced Electromagnetics

All true, but you must install (and boot) the SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) version of the kernel for more than one CPU or execution core (in a HyperThreading CPU) to be usable.

The default suse kernel supports 32 processors (or at least that is the max number set in the kernel config file). The 9.2 installer correctly identified and configured my smp system. Although I must admit that my system seems less responsive in Suse then it did in FC3 or Ubuntu. Abe Randall R Schulz wrote:

A friend of mine has it on his Abit with Dual processors and its slower than 8.2 with over a gig of memory. It is all over google about slowness issues though on my old Soyo P3 it runs fine. If you really must try it before 9.3 comes out use a second HD. ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/
