I think that he meant that he hasn't yet installed the appropriate
kernel patch, which is still required (although why I don't know -- I
thought that it was going to be included on the mainstream kernel as of
35 or 36) in 2.0.X.  It is at Jerome Forrisier's site and linked via
my collection of useful linux links,

  www.phy.duke.edu/~rgb/linux.html

Sorry I didn't mention this before in our private communications,
Gautam.  To tell you the truth, I forget the patch myself half the time
I upgrade a kernel.  I notice when I

 cat /proc/stat

and see stats for only one cpu.  The difference is (first one patched
SMP):
