FWIW I am using a dual Athlon T-bird 900MHz system on the Tyan Tiger MP mainboard with no stability problems. There is a memory issue, one must append "mem=nopentium" to the kernel command line with linux and I believe there is a patch for Win2K. I don't have any benchmarks handy, but compilation is uhhhh FAST. :) I had never experience the tile loading pause even with a single cpu system so I can't say whether the multi-threading improves the issue. Everything seems to work great in regards to FlightGear. Good luck. Wm -- William L.
