how to detect the number of processors ?

Hello List,

today I built a new kernel for one computer of the lab:
whereas the boss claims that it has only one processor,
Knoppix claims that there are two processors.
Booting a smp kernel shows two processors.
I am quite confused: how to know for sure
the number of processors in a black box ?

Thanks in advance,
Jerome
