Fortunately, this won't occur in most cases (including Gabriele's machines) because there's a NUMAnode object above each socket. Both the socket and the PCI bus are drawn inside the NUMA box, so things appear OK in graphics to. I've never seen the problem on a real machine, but a fake topology with a PCI bus attached to a socket that is not strictly equal to the above NUMA node is indeed wrongly displayed. Gabriele, assuming you have a dual Xeon X56xx Westmere machine, there are plenty of such platforms where the GPU is indeed connected to both sockets. Or it could be a buggy BIOS. Brice
