Re: how many processors

This proved to be the most consistent means for me. The other commands that were suggested worked on some of my boxes, but not others. This one seems to work on all of them.

 You should have unique ids for each physical CPU.  I don't have a dual
 core at my disposal but it works for hyper threading.

Interesting. If you actually look through the information from the
 type 4 second, I'm guessing it would be clear to the eye that there is
 or isn't a processor installed though, correct?

 Sounds like your way is the easiest though.

True. Curiosity got the best of me when I ran your "type 4" method and 2 returned when I knew I only had one CPU installed...after looking at the output, you are right, it's clear the second processor is not installed.

   ...I'm surprised no one has mentioned the "open the case" option :)

Another possibility could be:

#more /proc/cpuinfo
and look the "physical id" feature.

By this way with two processors hyper threading, you'll see:
    4 processors: two with "physical id"=0 plus two with "physical id"=3

So you could assume that there are 2 real processors.

Thanks
