freebsd stable - Mar 2008 - Don't recognizing SMP...

I installed FreeBSD 7.0 on HP DL 380.

This is a mptable result.

2 way cpus are same as 3.0GHz Xeon CPU. But they have different
Family, Step, and Flags.

I used kernel compiling with SMP option.
but, this is a sysctl result.

As you saw this result, it is not recognized as 2 CPUs. it recognized
Only one CPU...

plz. help me, i want it to recognize as 2 CPUs.

If this is a DL380 G2 you may have to enable smp by choosing either
windows, solaris or linux as os from bios before you get both cpu's.

SMP does NOT work with cpus with different steppings. You should find other 
matching pair for smp to work.

7.0 will use ACPI instead of MP Table if ACPI exists.  What does acpidump -t 
show?
