Dual core CPUs support for the second time

Hello again,

I`d like to thank for all responses, but my testing of everything was 
unsuccessfull in motherboard I have :(
I have one general question? Could it be, because I am using this modern 
motherboard with modern chipset which could be unsupported in FBSD?
My motherboard is very new SuperMicro H8SSL-i with ServerWorks HT1000 
chipset, but in his BIOS, there are correctly written 2 cores in 1 
physical CPU and CPU is recognized as dual core Athlon 64 X2

What is confusing me is dmesg - for example from current/i386 - system 
show correctly 2 cores per package, but second CPU is not launched or 
recognized by ioapic.

I tried upgrade BIOS with unofficial version, which sent me technical 
support of SuperMicro, but no change.

Thanks a lot for any help.
