Re: P4 3.06Ghz Hyperthreading with 2.4.20?

[James Wright <james@jigsawdezign.com>]

  Problem Solved!!!  I had foolishly enabled ACPI CPU Enumeration Only, i switched this off
and now all is working!!! wow... checkout those BogoMIPS;  

CPU0: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz stepping 07
CPU1: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz stepping 07
Total of 2 processors activated (12242.12 BogoMIPS).


Thanks for your quick response,
James
