Theoretically yes (it has SMP kernel) but practically I've seen problems like you had to install SMP kernel and module packages manually. *sigh* since it's obviously a bug. > Any advice would be appreciated. Regarding colours, you can try to modify the aforementioned setting and restart X (sorry for being so config-oriented, I'm just too dumb regarding the rest of the tools that's available and when I know the config, it's more reliable to work out an "edit this"-like advice rather than figuring out what's working and what's broken). -- ---- WBR, Michael Shigorin ------ Linux.Kiev http://www.linux.kiev.ua/
