[11:44] just ask the question [11:45] but by the sounds of it, your question probably belongs in #ubuntu [11:47] <_sparrow> hello BenC, thank you. I'm using a intel pentium 4 3 Ghz with HT. A smtp-kernel is installed and the system is finding 2 CPUs. But in /var/log messages, the kernel says: CPU: Hyper-Threading is disabled. [11:47] right, it's disabled by default because of security issues [11:48] to enable it, add ht=on to the kernel command line [11:48] <_sparrow> BenC: i tried ht=on, but the same message appears in /var/log/messages. so i'm confused. [11:52] var/log/messages does not get reset on boot, so you are probably seeing the old messages [11:52] check dmesg instead [11:52] dmesg | grep Hyper-Threading [11:54] <_sparrow> i've checked the timestamp of the message, it was after reboot/kernel-load. [11:54] are you booted with ht=on right now? [11:55] <_sparrow> no, i haven't. I will restart the system and come back. hope i was not blind. === _sparrow [n=sparrow@p50805E5C.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu-kernel [""for] === _sparrow [n=sparrow@p50805E5C.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [12:03] <_sparrow> BenC: Forget everything i've said.... seems i was blind... or stupid. sorry.
