HyperThreading is a horrible kludge. It required every OS to rewrite
their process schedulers to not die context switching to an imaginary
processor. The Linux kernel claims to have a hyper threading aware
scheduler, but I've never been happy with it running on a loaded
server. With mythTV, you'll really won't notice any difference either
way, so just the standard kernel.
Like Brian said, dual cores are a different matter. You must run the
SMP kernel or your not using half the silicon.
However... back to the OP. cat /proc/cpuinfo and /sbin/lspci and
post em if you're still having problems.
