Public bug reported:
This has worked with this particular kernel, and previous kernels, but
lately my quad-core system has only been bringing up one CPU/core. I've
attached debugging.txt, which contains the output of uname -a, cat
/proc/cpuinfo, and dmesg. I figure there's about a 15% chance that all
four cores will be brought up when I reboot, but I haven't been able to
figure out how to force it to bring up all cores. Downgrading to
previous kernels doesn't work. And booting into WinXP definitely shows
all four cores, so I doubt it's a problem with the hardware (but I may
be wrong about this).
