I'm going to guess that you have an Intel hyperthread processor, This
is what i have and so some operating systems like linux see this as a
dual processor machine. So that is what the smp kernel is for, the
one labeled just linux would be a single processor. I am using the
smp kernel and it works very well, but you should experiment and see
what you like. As for linux-nonfb hopefully some one else can explain
that to us as i have never tried that myself.
