------- Comment #24 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-10-09 03:02 ------- I know it's a bit weird, but an X3 processor is a quad core with one processor disabled. I chose it over a similarly priced quad core version for environmental and running cost reasons. I knew I would be running a server and for more or less the same performance within a set budget, running only three cores consumes less power than running an equivalent quad core processor. Ironically, it looks like it might be the unconventional triple core design that is causing problems with acpi and preventing ubuntu from managing power consumption effectively! Funny how good intentioned decisions you make can come back to bite you. I'll try the maxcpus=2 and maxcpus=3 options later this evening (UK time).
