I noticed this week end that my computer (AMD 64x2) was severely
dragging its feet when multi-tasking. The system monitor only shows one
CPU, so I trolled /var/log/messages to see what's happening. This short
segment seems relevant:

Mar  6 18:10:21 dharma kernel: [    0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x00] 
lapic_id[0x00] enabled)
Mar  6 18:10:21 dharma kernel: [    0.000000] Processor #0 15:11 APIC version 16
Mar  6 18:10:21 dharma kernel: [    0.000000] ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x01] 
lapic_id[0x01] enabled)
Mar  6 18:10:21 dharma kernel: [    0.000000] Processor #1 15:11 APIC version 16
Mar  6 18:10:21 dharma kernel: [    0.000000] WARNING: NR_CPUS limit of 1 
reached.  Processor ignored.

uname -a gives Linux dharma 2.6.24-11-386 #1 Fri Feb 29 21:28:00 UTC
2008 i686 GNU/Linux

I suppose I could fix this by forcing a more appropriate kernel package,
the point being, I never had to.
