Dear Sirs,

I ask you for an advice. I get with all kernels (2.6, 3.1, ... 3.4) with all
distributions (suse, ubuntu, ...) in the system messages
....

Jul 17 11:52:47 linux-joum kernel: [ 0.009100] CPU: Processor Core ID: 0

I work with Asus Mainboard M5A99X EVO and AMD FX(tm) 8150 (eight core)
processor. The Bios
Version is the newest (1208, used with default options). The Results are equal
with Kernel
option acpi=off or on, maxcpus=8 or not..
Systemmonitoring shows one CPU.
Bios must have the missing information? (weird, boot CPU (#16) not listed by
the BIOS).
Asus replied to my question: we test no Linux systems (windows7 works with 8
cores).
Do you have an advice for me?

Yours faithfully
Reiner Funck
