I've noticed that I don't have a *-smp kernel on my DuoCore2 Dell
laptop running FC6. The DuoCore processor is, as the name implies, a
dual core processor, so should I install the *-smp kernel?
The default (non i586) kernel is SMP now even for single core beasties.
cat /proc/version
to see if you have SMP in there, if not, you may have been bitten by the
anaconda bug that installs an i586 kernel on boxes that are better off
with the i686 one. Find out definitively by
rpm -q kernel --queryformat "%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n"
