Salix Forums

You have one CPU with 2 cores. You need the smp kernel.

Yes, install the kernel-huge-smp package.

What about for 64bit Salix? I installed 64bit Salix 13.1 and I only have the kernel-huge package, and not the huge-smp package. I did not do anything special during the install and I just selected the defaults.
The output of: "slapt-get --search kernel-huge" returns: So it looks like the kernel-huge package for 64bit Salix is already an smp kernel. Is that right?
The output of "uname -a" is: I followed this tutorial for installing the nvidia driver:

And it worked fine.
So is there a separate huge-smp kernel for 64bit Salix?

The 64-bit kernel is an smp kernel. There is no 64bit cpu without smp.

Ok thanks Gapan. That is what I figured when I saw the "smp" in the description of the 64bit kernel after I looked at it more closely.
I edited my post to reflect that once I saw it.
