SMP in linux is rock solid..what is causing issues is hyper threading which fakes a second cpu to try to keep it's excessivly long pipeline full. Get two p-3's or two athlon's or run the two p-4's without hyper threading and smp will work just fine. Hyperthreading is a godod idea that unfortunatly has to be used to patch an inefficient cpu design.

Sorry, the '?' thing is normal. These are ended processes in atop.
