Thought it might be better in this thread.
So, the Task Manager for Lubuntu is only showing one bar for core usage on my Core i3 system but using the command below shows that it is recognising all cores.
Really enjoying the 11.10 version of Lubuntu. Only prob I am having thus far is that only one core shows up in the Task Manager. In Ubuntu and Mint, its always been four cores for my Core i3, even though technically it has two cores.
Any thoughts on what to do? Does only the 64bit edition of Lubuntu support more cores?
I am using 32bit edition of Lubuntu 11.10.
My system is GAH55-USB3 motherboard, 4GB of RAM, with onboard HD graphics.
Curiously, when I enter this into terminal, I get two cores listed:

I think the Task Manager is showing the combined CPU usage, which is what you need to know.
If you wish to be able to see the 2 separately, you would need something like Conky.
Thanks heaps for that. I thought I would post my original post here to help others if the need arises. Lubuntu is a very good distro. I prefer it over Unity. I've used most distros over the years (Xubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Ubuntu soley for three years etc) and the two I like most are Mint 11 and Lubuntu 11.10.

Also, how do I log in automatically? Not sure I want to do that at the moment but its nice to know how. Can't seem to work it out yet.

After consulting with staff I have made this a sticky in Installation and Upgrades forum.

I don't know what to say? I'm so thankful to you and to Ubuntu Forum Staff
Really appreciate that. My aim of this thread is to be seen by all Lubuntu Users and even those who don't use Lubutnu. Lubutnu needs something like that. Saving time and energy nowadays is really important.
Thank you again
Can I know when that will be?It has an expiring redirect on general help.
