Re: [LAD] Timers, hpet, hrtimer -> kind of solved (for too old motherboards)

Thanks Clemens, you wrote in an unrelated thread: dmesg | grep -i hpet I wasn't clever enough to use -i (ignore case) when I checked whether hpet=force worked. $ dmesg | grep -i hpet Kernel command line: root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/3e47466f-5ca1-499b-85fc-152074f36364 ro hpet=force pci 0000:00:11.0: Failed to force enable HPET /dev/hpet was still created, but when I changed its group and told jack to use it I got: This system has no accessible HPET device (Device or resource busy) My interpretation of this is that my motherboard is simply too old and simply doesn't have a hpet timer. Thanks for the help everyone, guess I'm out of this until I manage to get a new machine. Best regards, Philipp
