I have an ACER AM3100-UD5200A which uses an AMD 64 X2 5200.
Xen only detects one of two cores
First I installed Fedora 8 + Xen that ships with the distro and found that only one core was detected when DOM0 booted. Out of frustration I decided to install CentOS 5.1 as a quick resolution to the problem, but found the same problem.
checking /proc/cpuinfo
there is only one core
