When our company re-paints fire or water damaged drywall, we use Zinsser's Bin. It's a sealer made specifically for this purpose. It works great. After applying this to the walls, you can repaint. You could also call a local paint store and see what they recommend.

When we had a housefire, we just let the insurance company hire professionals to do the job. They primed every wall with Kilz and painted over the primer.
We have used a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water to get rid of nicotine stains from walls. That might work for smoke.

If you've got smoke damage your best bet is to use a sealer like "cover stain" or "kilz" an oil based product though no water based.
