Sorry to ask here, but the ArchLinux forums are completely fsck'd. I need to disable some cpu cores but can't remember how.

I've got some progs I want to run using wine, but they're notorious for multi-core incompatability.

Again, sorry to ask. All my searches came up empty.
Never tried this myself, but could you launch the process using taskset and thus limit the cores it may use? To actually disable a core try: 
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
But substitute "cpu1" with the core you want to disable of course.

taskset was what I needed.
Heh. Two out of three running. Third one might need some winetricks. Thanks ppl.
