(which may well work on ppc too I suppose). Definitely not installed by default by my distro so IRQs from the network cards on all x86's using ubuntu gutsy at least are spread to all CPUs :-) There's also a balance kernel thread in x86 with has a notion of irq that isn't moveable but that flag isn't set by any driver.
