ok, now do the same thing, but with -On to get the numeric equivalents.  Or,
determine the name of the mib that hrProcessorLoad is in and do a loadmibs:
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/HOST-RESOURCES-MIB.my 
(or whatever the full path to the mib file is).

Let's assume you got the loadmibs thingy to work. The targets should then
be:
Target[CPU1]: hrProcessorLoad.1&hrProcessorLoad.1:COMMUNITY_STRING at IP::::2
Target[CPU2]: hrProcessorLoad.2&hrProcessorLoad.2:COMMUNITY_STRING at IP:::::2

And cetera.  mrtg always needs 2 oids, so I'm just repeating one.  If you
don't want to display the same line twice, you can use:
options[CPU1]: guage, noi

You do need the guage bit.  Noi removes the "input" line.  You could also
use noo if you like green graphs instead of blue ones...

If you are using rrdtool as a backend, generating a front-end to graph each
of the input lines from 4 rrds is left as an exercise for the reader.  

If you are using rateup as your backend, no.
