Hi,
Presently I have the Following Kernel Image Installed on a
Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2210
Machine. It detects both CPu's

# uname -a
Linux websrv-1 2.6.18-4-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Mar 26 11:36:53 CEST 2007

# dpkg -l |grep kernel
ii linux-image-2.6-amd64 2.6.18+6
Linux kernel 2.6 image on AMD64

===========================================================================
How ever I find there is a Kernel image specifically named SMP.
===========================================================================
websrv-1:~# apt-cache search kernel-image | grep amd64
kernel-image-2.6-amd64-generic - Linux kernel image for version 2.6 on
generic x86_64 systems - transition package
kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8 - Linux kernel image for version 2.6 on
AMD64 systems - transition package
kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8-smp - Linux kernel image for version 2.6 on
AMD64 SMP systems - transition package
============================================================================
Should I migrate to "kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8-smp " for better perfomance?
