Care to try again with maxcpus=0? I seem to recall that this disables even more of SMP than maxcpus=1 does. > Return system to previous configuration with "cpuspeed" and reboot. > > My only other choice would be to physically pull CPU2, leaving CPU1 in > the system, but we know that config should work based on Harry's testing. We don't, actually. You have different software environments and maybe different BIOS options. And not exactly the same hardware either... But I totally understand that you don't want to physically remove the second CPU. I'm not even sure if that would help. OTOH, if you see an option in the BIOS to disable HT, that would be worth trying. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
