Above should be the specs on the machine.

Does that info help clarify what I have and asking?

In general, things should work more-or-less out of the box.
I'd consider switching to F9/x86_64, especially if you have more than
2GB of memory.


Well, I only have 2G ram, so using 64 won't do me much good anyway. I
guess I am only asking is what services (if any) need to be on to take
advantage of the dual core processor(s), as I mostly turn off all
services that I don't need after a install and might have turned
something off (like cpuspeed, if needed) that might need on to help the
system run faster/better.

P.S. I've yet to upgrade from F8 and F9 on my machines. But unless
something went wrong between RC2 and F9-release, you should be safe.

Already running F9 and have since testing actually. Just trying to
clarify what services are needed IF any for cpus to work faster/better.

P.S. Not having any problems or slowness really on anything, just asking
in general is all.


As far as I know non of "desktop" services in Fedora (cpuspeed included)
need any type of special configuration when used on dual core CPUs.
