Great news on the patch.
What is the reason for not having ACPI ?

Linux depends on an ACPI BIOS to provide configuration for the HPET.
The net6501 does not support ACPI, so Linux does not use the HPET.
However, I've created a patch (attached) for Linux 3.2 that enables HPET
on the net6501. I've been running with this patch for several months
and have no

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.
Hi George,
perhaps you will do a list search for the following:

Is the bios from the Soekris net6501 ACPI
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
