It's probably specific to your system, nothing general.

Hi Andi,

Thanks for the reply. I'm compiling linux on a pentinum
4 HT 3GHz. 2.6.14 did detect both processor, but all
kernels > 2.6.15 did not. (at least till 2.6.17.7)

Are you sure you are really using the same configuration? HyperThreading has never worked without some amount of ACPI enabled.
