Check the changelog for version linux-source-2.6.15 (2.6.15-1.1):

    YES! I know there are no i386 SMP packages. The 686 and k7 packages are
    SMP enabled. In fact, they are also UP enabled "WHAT!?!? HUH!?!". Yes, SMP
    on i386 now has the added benefit of killing lock ops dynamically on boot.
    This is still in testing phase. I also need to fix a few things to get it
    working for modules.

Cheers,

Rui
