For that matter, my understanding is that dual core opterons *are* separate processors, connected only via their normal external interface.

Ready for dual core Opterons?
According to the article at http://www.techweb.com/wire/hardware/160503169 AMD is going to be launching dual core Opterons this month. Will FreeBSD 5.4 be ready to handle them? Also, will the "nve" driver (which is needed to run the Ethernet interface on AMD-based boards with NVidia chipsets) be in 5.4? --Brett Glass ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
