Public bug reported: Hello I have an i5 M430 cpu on my HP dv6 laptop. My question is if i5 cpu are fully supported on ubuntu (generally in linux). I ask this cause my cpu seems to not work properly.
1° the kernel detects only 1 physical core, not 2 as intel specs (http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=43537). In fact I have 4 logical cores (threads) and just one physical as dmesg says: [ 0.000213] CPU: Physical Processor ID: 0 [ 0.000214] CPU: Processor Core ID: 0 [ 0.000229] mce: CPU supports 9 MCE banks [ 0.000240] CPU0: Thermal monitoring enabled (TM1) ........ [ 0.061392] CPU0: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 430 @ 2.27GHz stepping 02 [ 0.167920] Booting Node 0, Processors #1 [ 0.178107] Initializing CPU#1 [ 0.260740] #2 [ 0.270956] Initializing CPU#2 [ 0.353550] #3 [ 0.363765] Initializing CPU#3 [ 0.444415] Brought up 4 CPUs [ 0.444418] Total of 4 processors activated (18087.19 BogoMIPS). 2° in /proc/acpi/processor I get: mebi...@marmidha:/proc/acpi/processor$ cat CPU*/info processor id: 0 acpi id: 1 bus mastering control: yes power management: no throttling control: yes limit interface: yes processor id: 1 acpi id: 2 bus mastering control: yes power management: no throttling control: yes limit interface: yes processor id: 2 acpi id: 3 bus mastering control: yes power management: no throttling control: yes limit interface: yes processor id: 3 acpi id: 4 bus mastering control: yes power management: no throttling control: yes limit interface: yes so I do not have cpu power managment that means a poor battery life (I have about 1h 20mins) 3° Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series chipset do not have sensors. I used a patch found on lm_sensors page to get support for P55 chipset and now I get: intel-pci-00fe Adapter: PCI adapter thermal sensor: +122.0°C core 0: +55.5°C processor: +58.0°C internal temperature: +62.0°C really strange value for thermal sensor. 4° I have no fan. I can load the module but /proac/acpi/fan directory is empty. 5° i7z reports good values for number of physical cores, turbo mode and frequencies. I notice that I have disassebled my DSDT, correct all errors and warnigns (I alsa tried to merge DSDT and SSDT table with acpi_no_auto_ssdt) but what I get is only a kernel panic at boot. Someone can help me? thx a lot Claudio ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: linux-image (not installed) Regression: No Reproducible: Yes ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-23.40-generic-pae 2.6.35.7 Uname: Linux 2.6.35.7-1000-thermal-41 i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia wl AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.23.
