cpu

My Lenovo T61 has a dual core CPU. I just noticed that under Ubuntu 10.10 only one CPU is recognized. I know that once both CPUs worked. Not sure since when the second CPU is missing. Maybe since the last kernel update. Currently I am using linux-image-2.6.35-23-generic (for x86_64).

What can I do to enable the second CPU again?

Here the ouput of /proc/cpuinfo

processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel

Any help is welcome. I really need that CPU power for my work here.
