I got the same response, and it's the number of processors, but I
don4t know anything about the cores.
Any idea how to get that info?
You look at dmesg, and then at your processor manual.
We do not expose these concepts, since there is so much variation
between machines of different architectures (ie. not just i386).
If I remember it right, there was some work in this area (CPUID and CPU
model detection for i386 and amd64) done by Toby some time ago. Has it
been used somewhere?
