[ACPI-sppt] Can ACPI be used to enable Hyperthreading?

I have a P4 1.8GHz CPU in my laptop which allegedly supports 
hyperthreading.   I've built an SMP capable kernel but upon bootup, 
Hyperthreading is not activated because it is disabled in the BIOS.  
There are no BIOS options to enable hyperthreading (It's a Compaq Evo 
and the BIOS doesn't give you many options).  Is it possible to enable 
hyperthreading via ACPI even if that means a tweak of the DSDT?
