    Since I've installed Deepin on an SSD, none of the virtualization apps (vmWare Workstation, VirtualBox, qemu-kvm) can onyl detect two of the four CPU cores. Why?

    Have you checked in the System Monitor application and confirmed that the host machine is running 4 cores instead of 2 ?

    Yes. It shows that the host machine is running 2 cores. While the host has 4 CPU cores. Output of lscpu shows this:

    Problem solved. It was caused by Laptop Mode Tools' cpuhotplug module. It supposed to disable idle CPU cores when on battery,.
