I'm running RHEL 4 Update 3 on an AMD Opteron dual CPU system. I can see the 
four CPUs in /proc/cpuinfo. I am running the SMP kernel (2.6.9-34.ELsmp).  
There is no option to set hyperthreading in the BIOS but in any case I can 
see the multiple CPUs in the BIOS.  However, I can't see them in top:


top - 13:03:58 up 49 min,  2 users,  load average: 0.01, 0.03, 0.00
Tasks: 110 total,   1 running, 108 sleeping,   0 stopped,   1 zombie
Cpu(s):  3.9% us,  0.7% sy,  0.0% ni, 95.3% id,  0.0% wa,  0.1% hi,  0.0% si
Mem:   3114388k total,   340440k used,  2773948k free,    20200k buffers
Swap:  4192956k total,        0k used,  4192956k free,   177660k cached
Maximum tasks = 0, change to (0 is unlimited):



Anyone have any suggestions as to what I should check to get this working?
