Hi Everyone,
I'm having trouble with my ubuntu distro. I have a quad core CPU (AMD Phenom II X4 945), but it only uses two cores.
I'm using ubuntu karmic, fully up to date. I upgraded my BIOS yesterday to see if that is the problem.
My mother board is a Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P

Here's my "dmesg | grep -i cpu":

After updating my BIOS, there was a new option, which by default DISABLED two CPUs.
Thank you all.
