For what it's worth, I have a
model name      :               Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.80GHz
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge
mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm syscall
nx lm constant_tsc pni monitor ds_cpl est tm2 cid cx16 xtpr
address sizes   : 36 bits physical, 48 bits virtual

It is running amd64 etch.

My 3.8GHz does..

Would this flag disappear if HT was disabled in the bios?
