Once installed, I have 1 cpu instead of 4. It is an Intel MB DX58SO with i7 CPU. NZvidia card. Upon researching, I have learned that with CPUID enabled in CMOS, it breaks the system. If you enable ACPI in the boot script, you are done. LOCKS. It only allows one cpu to work, even with SMP kernel. I need CPUID enables for VirtualBox. The 11.3 kernel works just fine. Is there a work around, or patch we can deploy? This is huge. It doesn't just affect Suse, it is affecting other distro releases too, so this is NOT just a Suse problem from what I can figure out. Not sure how to report it to those guys, but I'll bet you do. ;) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert Bood DVD 2. Watch 3. Weep. 4. Go into CMOS, disable CPUID 5. Reboot, presto chango, 4 cpu's and it actually boots. Actual Results: Does not work with CPUID enabled Works with it disabled. IE: Legacy systems sometime require this. This should NOT be the case with a new kernel. Expected Results: It works, but it does not appear to be detecting the 4 virutal cpus for a total of 8 like in 11.3, it just sees 4 cpus -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
