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).
