I attached the 'dmesg' output because there it shows that my kernel
recogonized 2 cpu's.As said earlier , are they treated as 2 physical cpu's
or logical cpu's?

I don't have a 2.6.5 available, but I do have a 2.6.9 to look at.

I believe even HT on 2.6.11 maintains two different runqueues. But it
doesn't care so much to jump from one runqueue to the next if it is HT.

No, you wouldn't want to.

Here you see that you have two CPUs. 0 is the sibling of 1 and 1 to 0.
This just shows that you have HT. If you were to have a dual xeon, then
you would see 4 CPUs and two pairs.
