SubjectDell OptiPlex 320 - Core 2 Duo
From
Date
Greetings to all,

I recently stumbled across a Dell OptiPlex 320 which brings a nasty
assembly of hardware. Besides the many issues reported (system/bios time
de-sync, SATA controller detection, etc), this particular model doesn't
seem to correctly recognize the CPU, which I'm not even sure what it is
(I haven't seen anyone else complaining about it). As far as I could
investigate, it looks like a weird P4 1.8Ghz, dual core.
However, /proc/cpuinfo only reports 1 processor, 1.8Ghz. I'm saying that
it's a dual core because I've seen an identical machine running Windows,
showing 2 CPUs. Besides, other tools report it as "dual core".

Below is the output of /proc/cpuinfo and some head lines of dmesg. Here
is the output of Todd Allen's cpuid tool (20060917):
(multi-processing synth): hyper-threaded (t=2)
(synth) = Intel Core 2 Duo (Conroe/Allendale) / Core 2 Extreme
Processor (Conroe) / Dual-Core Xeon Processor 5100 (Woodcrest), 65nm

I've tried OpenSuSE 10.3 default kernel, 2.6.22.5, the oSuSE last
update, 2.6.22.17, and a custom-built 2.6.24.2, all 32bit. I just notice
now that I could have tried downgrading...

What I'm looking for is some guidance in how can I trace this for you
and perhaps help you/me somehow. I've digged this mailing-list and lots
of other sources, and no one seems to complain about this, which is
odd...
