Hi Andre, sorry, after a night of reading the first 400 pages of "Learning Shell Programming in 24 hours" I am exhausted now and power myself down in a minute, I just saw your msg. before I closed my mail session. So I don't check any detail. But in a quick guess I would say chances are it might be remotely related to what I wrote about last year: http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/xwin-discuss/2008-August/002159.html ? UPDATE: NO! It looks like a pretty different issue. In your case it appears, as if the 2nd core has not been correctly initialized indeed (or as if the 2nd core has been shut down / disabled). Could it be that the CPUID of your CoreDuo2 2.4GHz chip is just too brand new, and hence not in the kernel's cpu-identification code yet? The CPU identification detection mechanism code code can be tricky, I recall that it has been a bit difficult to make qemu-system-x86_64 be recognized as AMD64-capable 64bit cpu at first (by any Solaris 10 /11 kernel), Solaris only saw it as 32 bit 686. The Linux kernel does not have so sophisticated checks and recognized it from the outset on (also due to the fact, that most qemu.org developers still use linUX as their primary devel platform). But Juergen Keil soon found a fix for Solaris, back in October 2006 (for exact details and the files involved see qemu-discuss archives).
