If it's an ASUS board you can try going into the BIOS and changing the APIC
MPS mode(Think that's it) there's either MPS 1.0 or MPS 1.4 I think(going
off memory here.) I had a problem like this once with an Asus P2B-D and
changing those modes seemed to help.

My understanding of the MPS versions is just that MPS 1.4 has a stricter set
of rules than 1.0. Again something I know nothing about.

Hello,

Just recently I noticed one of my webservers was not showing two CPU's when
doing a top.

I checked dmesg, and noticed the following:

FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor motherboard
 cpu0 (BSP): apic id:  0, version: 0x00040011, at 0xfee00000
 io0 (APIC): apic id:  1, version: 0x00170011, at 0xfec00000

cpu1 is not showing up.

The machine is running 4.2-STABLE, and has been working perfectly for quite
some time.
I haven't made any kernel changes or any other changes I can think of.

Any ideas?

Kevin
