2012-03-10 Thread George
Hi I tried Debian/Ubuntu with different kernels 2.6.32 and 2.6.38 on net6501-70 BIOS 1.41a. All do not detect the HPET. Kernel timer interrupt frequency is approx. 1000 Hz instead of 4000 Hz or higher with LowLatency kernel. Same kernels on other motherboards work fine. cat /proc/timer_list

Thank you Chris. I found no newer firmware than 1.41a on soekris downloads and I need a 2.6 kernel due to compatibility of own software (kernel driver). Kind Regards George On 10.03.2012, at 15:34, Chris Boot bo...@bootc.net wrote: On 10 Mar 2012, at 11:30, George sentos...@yahoo.com
