me if I'm wrong. But I also believe this code is a work in progress, and
the more feedback of what people want/need the better we can make the code
do just that.
Is the high res timers turned on?

This is only true, when high resolution timers are enabled.
Is there any solution for the !CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS case? I for one
can't use it because my hardware doesn't support it (no local APIC).
