Another thing you can check:
dmesg | grep -i hpet
You'll see if your h/w supports it.

yeah, I have added a few things in a startup
script.
Among other things, I have:
chgrp audio /dev/hpet
echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/hpet/max-user-freq
modprobe snd-hrtimer
The modprobe may not be needed anymore as my kernel is
using hr-timer by default.
I wrote this script quite some
time ago and forgot about it :)
