Hello:
Well, I 've changed my system to a Pemtium IV with Hyper Threading. I need to
recompile all the system for this new posibility. How can I emerge the
packages with HT support? How can I compile the kernel with HT support?
Thanks

In Menuconfig (2.4 kernel), the 3rd line is "Processor type and
features" in there turn on "Symmetric multi-processing support."
Says a relative n00b, but I'd get a second opinion if I were yo
You do not need to recompile all the system only make the kernel for SMP
if you ran a non SMP system before.
All other is automagically done. (Edit make.conf for the extra CPU to
use it during compilation.)
Also enable HT in BIOS.

Recompiled kernel 2.6.1-gentoo-r1 with "Symmetric multi-processing support.".
Called kernel at boot with 'smp-acpi'
Changed /etc/make.conf for MAKEOPTS='-j3'
Thanks. All is right. The 2 cpus have been activated:

No it is for making user space programs threaded if they support it (I
think).
I do not use it and I am HT.
You can check that HT is working because you start multiple kernel
compiles in the background and then you can see both CPUs utilized
around 99 % in "top". (Hit 1 when in top if only one C
