A few years ago, I'd say that.
Today, however, most people I know run multiple processes at once.
On my home system (dual PPro/200), I routinely have running:
- TiK (an instant-messenger client)
- Netscape (for web and mail)
- trn (for reading news)
- Emacs
- At least one shell window
- RealPlayer (if my web browsing takes me to a video clip)
- XFree86 (plus a window manager)
- A bunch of daemons (like sendmail)
Most of the time, the second processor probably doesn't contribute much,
but when one of them decides to start using a lot of CPU, having the
other one around keeps the system responsive.

OK. That was good.
Any suggestions as to how I could find out if my instruction
requirements
fit in the cache or not? Not too sure how it is distributed.
Overall though, I still expected better performance just from faster
speed.

As stated in my reply posted less than 24 hours ago:
You need Kernel v.2.2.16 and the ide patch (ide.2.2.16.all.20000722.patch).
These are available from kernel.org
Note that the patch is at: .../pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/

Hi Niklas,
As long as you don't try to use a separate controller, you should be
fine using your mb's built-in IDE controller. It will run at 33. The
problems with UDMA/66 come from using an add-on controller card.
As far as I know, support for U/66 is iffy and not worth the hassle.

>From my previous message:
I just finished installing a Promise Ultra66 card today. My
suggestions:
1. Read the Ultra-DMA HOW TO available on the web. The instructions
for the Ultra33 card about passing the paramaters to the kernel should
enable you to boot from the floppy and use the hard drive with the
Ultra66 card.
2. The issue is not the version of some distribution of Linux, but
the version of the Kernel. You need to upgrade the Kernel to v.2.2.16
and apply the patch 'ide .2.2.16.all.20000722' to the source before you
build it.
3. Then you may need to edit 'lilo.conf' by hand and run /sbin/lilo.
I found that my system would not boot. It just printed LI and
stopped., untill, I added the 'linear' global paramater.
Everything now works (ant it only took three days to figure it out!)
Note that the attachment is an excerpt from the Ultra-DMA HOWTO
Previous message had a typo -- it is Kernel v.2.2.16 that is needed. This is
available from kernel.org. The patch is somewhat burried at
.../pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/

Subject: scsi hdd & ide cdrom
Date: Wed, 02 Aug 2000 22:55:44 GMT
Hello all,
I am trying to install SuSe 6.4 on a pc with a 500M scsi drive id 0,
and a 4G scsi drive id 1, and an IDE CDROM. The bios of the PC finds
the card ok and the card bios finds the drives ok. Both drives can
boot and see each other in DOS.
They are on a Advansys PCI SCSI card (Taiwan clone) id 7. When the ide
cdrom is used to boot, then the advansys module loaded via yast, the
card is identified but timesout on all ids.
If the pc is booted from floppy the system still times out on all ids.
If the IDE ports are disabled in bios, or the cdrom removed the system
will find the id0 drive but not id1 drive.
Different cdroms and hard drives have been tried, I don't have a spare
SCSI card.
Any ideas?

In general, good sources of such information are:
www. linhardware.com
www.o2.net/~gromitck/winmodem.html
But, they didn't seem to have any information.
If this is a BEST BUY private label product, there is a high probablity
thait it is a Winmodem (tm) especially if you paid less than $50.00 for
it.

Have you got termination set properly? I've heard - though not
experienced - that improperly terminated devices will be detected by
the BIOS, which is less demanding, but not by the OS. Sometimes it
happens sporadically.

Is the SCSI card using the same IRQ as the IDE controllers are
expected to use?

Never had a problem with the Symbios Logic/LSI 53c8xx series in any

Is this one of those "Sync On Green" monitors? if so you
might have luck at a used computer store for a "Sync on Green" video
card. I believe they are known as pga cards (Personal Graphics Color
Adaptor). if it has the option of supporting R,B,G,H,V a standard VGA
card will work ok. There are HD15 cables to 5 bnc plug available. You
will need to setup up Xfree86 for the proper sync rates (that info is
needed).
