Hi,

I have installed the version 4.0.2 of globus and I have a centrino processor
and the operating system is ubuntu. The problem is that globus detects two
processors in my computer while there is only one. I have analized the script
$GLOBUS_LOCATION/libexec/globus-scheduler-provider-fork and I have concluded
that the number of processors is equal to the number of times that the word
'processors' occurs in the file /proc/cpuinfo.

In my case, I have the following content in /proc/cpuinfo:

processor       : 0
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 9
model name      : Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz
...

As we can see, the word 'processors' appears twice but I have only one
processor.
So, I have changed the script globus-scheduler-provider-fork at the line 77:

where before there was: 

...
            if ($line =~ /processor/)
            {
                $total_nodes++;
            }
...

now is:

...
            if ($line =~ /^processor(\s)+\:/)
            {
                $total_nodes++;
            }
...

This means that the number of processors is equal to the number of lines which
begin by the word 'processor'.

And now, it works fine.
