Number of CPU cores wrong

[mcsmart]

I have a Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor and Mac OS X 10.5.2 (with PCEFI v8) installed on my machine (check my signature). In 10.5.1 (without EFI) System Profiler correctly displayed "Total number of cores: 2".

 

Now in 10.5.2 with EFI System Profiler only shows:

Hardware Overview:

• Model Name: Mac
  
• Model Identifier: To Be Filled By O.E.M.
  
• Processor Name: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4600+
  
• Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
  
• Total Number Of Cores: 1
  
• L2 Cache: 512 KB
  
• CPU Features: FPU VME DE PSE TSC MSR PAE MCE CX8 APIC SEP MTRR PGE MCA CMOV PAT PSE36 CLFSH MMX FXSR SSE SSE2 HTT SSE3 CX16
  
• Memory: 2 GB
  
• Bus Speed: 200 MHz Boot ROM Version: Hack.88Z.int.0sh.061193*** (American Megatrends Inc.)
  
• Serial Number: YM8659M6***
  

 

Is this just a cosmetic problem like the "To Be Filled By O.E.M." or could it cause any problems? Will both cores be used? I've installed procfs and it shows 2 CPUs:

 

dk:proc foobar$ cd /proc/system/hardware/cpus/
dk:cpus foobar$ ls
0	1
dk:cpus foobar$ cat 0/data 
slot 0 (master), running
type 7, subtype 4
40030 ticks (user 1111 system 776 idle 38143 nice 0)
cpu uptime 0h 6m 40s
dk:cpus foobar$ cat 1/data 
slot 1, running
type 7, subtype 4
40264 ticks (user 992 system 748 idle 38524 nice 0)
cpu uptime 0h 6m 42s

 

I do not have any kernel flags in com.apple.Boot.plist .

PS: If anybody knows how to get rid of the "To Be Filled By O.E.M." it would not be bad either.

I just updated my Zepyroth 10.5.2 to 10.5.4 and installed the 9.4.0 StageXNU kernel. This kernel fixes the problem, now two CPU cores are being reported by Systemprofiler.

 

BTW: With StageXNU 9.4.0 I also got sleep to work on my machine.
