ht technology in linux?

[Marcelo Chiapparini <chiappa@uerj.br>]

Hello!

from the Intel site:

"Intel is working with the Linux community to get necessary 
optimizations for HT Technology included in distributions. Note that 
while Linux operating system desktop based PCs may have HT Technology 
enabled, only PCs based on Microsoft* Windows* XP Professional Edition 
or Microsoft* Windows* Home Edition are currently eligible to carry the 
new Intel Pentium 4 Processor with HT Technology logo. If purchasing a 
Linux operating system desktop-based PC, check with your PC vendor to 
determine if the PC includes the necessary system ingredients for HT 
Technology and has HT Technology enabled."

Is the HT technology enabled for Linux? perhaps as a kernel compile 
option? if so, for what version of kernel?

TIA

Marcelo
