Below is the uname -a output from two different machines. You'll notice the 
first (which is an SMP kernel) says SMP, the latter (which is a UP kernel) 
does not.

Linux wren 2.6.9-wibble #1 SMP Wed Nov 10 16:56:58 GMT 2004 i686 GNU/Linux
Linux jay 2.6.7-wibble #1 Sat Jul 10 14:16:42 BST 2004 i586 GNU/Linux

For 2.6 kernels you may be able to extract the exact kernel configuration from 
the kernel image, or from /proc/config.gz
