If a non SMP kernel has been installed and made default , it may
indicate that your system has multicore disabled in BIOS:

Some HP DC 5850 were delivered that way at CERN

Please check in the system BIOS the 'multicore' (or VT ? .. sorry don;t
remember how the actual option is called .. ) is enabled.
