[PlanetCCRMA] compiling the planetCCRMA kernel

The directions linked above, combined with Fernando's suggestion, allows me
to compile
http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/mirror/all/linux/SRPMS/kernel-2.6.16-1.2080.16.rrt.src.rpm
with wacom support.

Is there a similar smp kernel source, or do I have to do some editing to the
kernel-spec file? When using this kernel on my P4 2.4 with hyperthreading,
it seems hyperthreading is disabled.

Regards,
Rich
