Dmesg is your friend. dmesg | less will replay some of the messages that scroll off your screen at boot up. At the beginning, there should be something about processors. Top may show this too. Kcontrol centre under KDE under the system information. If you installed a plain kernel - the stock kernel is single processor only. You may want to aptitude install kernel-2.6-i686-smp [Or something fairly like that. Use synaptic / dselect / aptitude to find out] The SMP is the give away - synmetric multi processor.
