Comment 28 for bug 295091

@gbon -- excellent thanks. No need to appologise, its not something we would naturally look for until we are close to the trigger. Thank you for all your debug efforts even though you no longer needed to use Hardy.

From the cpuinfo we can clearly see we do not get two cpus in any Hardy kernel, working or not:

    cpuinfo-2.6.24-19-generic:processor : 0
    cpuinfo-2.6.24-24-generic:processor : 0

But do do so in Intrepid kernels:
    cpuinfo-2.6.27-11-generic:processor : 0
    cpuinfo-2.6.27-11-generic:processor : 1

So this would trigger the bug I have found in the sysfs handling. Will push this patch to our Hardy tree.
