I wish I could paste the 'top' output from Red Hat's IBM x440 with 8
physical cpus running Advanced Server 2.1 (kernel-summit-2.4.9-e.12) it
shows up as 16 cpus. If you are running the e.12 kernels you can add a
kernel (or append=) parameter of 'noht' to disable HyperThreading at
boot time, or disable it in the system bios if that option was made
available by the system manufacturer. Not sure if 'noht' works on the
base kernels.
