Thank you very much for the reply, Todd!   :-)   I tried one of those setting lines in one of those links a couple weeks ago, but maybe haven't found the right config file to put it in?  I'll give those others a try...  It seems like this should be a very common problem/solution with all the cheap three- and quad-cores out there - if indeed Xen automatically defaults to a single cpu per socket everyone would be :-( !  (I haven't found any non-programmers who have actually cracked that code in those links for setting the cpu's per socket).

Happy New Year!
Patti
