'uname -a' will print the version of the running kernel.  It should
be something like 2.4.22-1.2166.nptlsmp.  If it doesn't have smp
in the name it isn't smp.  Reboot and see if you have a boot-time
choice for an smp kernel and if not use apt-get or yum to install
one.  'apt-get install kernel'  with give a listing of available kernels
and repeating the command followed by the version you want
will install it, but not make it the default for booting.   Select it
at bootup and if it works the way you want, edit /etc/grub.conf
to make it the default (the first choice is 0).
