Thanks. What time-frame are we talking about; looks like qemu 1.7.0 is about to be released with seabios-1.7.3 and includes ACPI table generation. I don't see SMBIOS table/record generation support however.

Use "dmidevcode -t 4" to show that only the configured number of packages/sockets are shown versus the number of CPUs (sockets*cores*threads).
Thanks Bret.
The SMBIOS stored in seabios is really a function of QEMU. So, discussions on its correct content and changes to it need to be discussed on the QEMU mailing list. Going forward, we want to move all the ACPI, SMBIOS, and MPTable changes to the QEMU side.
