There is a kernel bug in Fedora flavors < 2.6.15 that prevents SMP affinity
from being set. Sorry, don't have the link right now but bugs.redhat.com
should have it.

Interesting - we're running FC4, and without IRQ balance, all
interrupts default to the highest numbered CPU (CPU3 with
hyperthreading on, CPU1 with it off...)

i have added an echo statement to our startup scripts that moves the
T1 card to interrupt on CPU0 and it has worked wonderfully for
us...watching /proc/interrupts shows that the digium/sangoma card is
only hitting CPU0 while everything else hits CPU1

we're running a stock FC4 install, kernel 2.6.11.x, FWIW...
