Okay, I have been researching my UP/SMP problem. In the past, before recent "Intel topology" changes, on my Toshiba = Satellite U205 machine if I used a kernel with ACPI support, only 1 = logical CPU showed up in FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE. When I booted into Windows = XP on the same machine, with the same BIOS settings, I would see 2 = logical CPUs. If I built a FreeBSD kernel WITHOUT ACPI support and left = the BIOS settings as they were above, I then would see 2 logical CPUs. Now with these recent FreeBSD changes I cannot get the machine to EVER = recognize a 2nd logical processor, but if I boot into Windows XP I still = see two CPUs, so we still have a bug in this new Intel topology code. This laptop has an Intel Core Duo T2400 @ 1.83 GHz chip. (The BIOS is = set to provide multiple logical CPUs in all cases and Andriy, I am using = your patched kernel.) Is there anything else I can do to help you understand this system = config? What next? Dan
