I tried to reproduce on my machine by letting Sysinfo read a file with your /proc/cpuinfo data in another file, but it reported 8 cpus.

Could you install the version of sysinfo attached and try on your machine ?

install with
   sudo dpkg -i sysinfo*deb

if you launch sysinfo in a terminal, when clicking on CPU, it'll output all lines of the cpuinfo file it reads and the number of cpu's calculated (1 for each line starting with processor). I suspect it may not be reading the complete file for some reason on your machine

   thanks,

Koen,

When I attempt to run sysinfo out of that package, I get the following:
    The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded.
    It should have been installed in the `/usr/lib/mono/1.0/mscorlib.dll' directory.

Do you have a source package I could build against my system?

Nevermind, I needed to install mono-1.0-runtime. Log is attached.
