I'm running Red Hat Enterprise Linux desktop 5.4, 64 bit on my macbook pro 4,1. It only uses one of the two cpu cores. I've booted to a mandriva 64 bit rescue disk and it shows two cores. Anyone else running RHEL desktop 5.4? -- Until later, Geoffrey "I predict future happiness for America if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them." - Thomas Jefferson |

I'm personally running Fedora 12 on mine. Have you tried installing a newer kernel on 5.4?

I've a macbook2,2 maybe I should load the livecd and see. I'm assuming mac kernel is something redhat creates! you might want to try a vanilla kernel with a different .config (if you need mine let me know). as for the message is this way up the line and/or towards the bottom after udev is started?

That really takes me back to where I want to be anyway. Drop me your config, that would be great, but recall, I had problems getting it to boot. I've give it a go again though. > > as for the message is this way up the line and/or towards the bottom > after udev is started? The messages above were not all together, but spread across /var/logs/messages, I grepped for SMP to get that info. Looking at /var/log/messages, I see no reference to udev at all. Although 'ps' shows: root 491 0.0 0.0 13032 1212 ? S<s 06:50 0:00 /sbin/udevd -d > > > Justin P.
