Maybe. I am using the 1.2 BIOS. But I do not think it is BIOS related.

It could also be slight differences in ACPI usage/patches I suppose. The Fedora
kernels do have a bit of ACPI patches in them, but nothing sticks out as
obviously relevant to the timers..

Might also be SMP/UP related. The fedora x86_&4 kernels are all SMP enabled and
I suppose this could make a bit of difference in how the timer is handled.

I am sorry but I am too lazy to compile a pristine 2.6.16 or 2.6.17 kernel
myself from kernel.org sources just to verify now that the Fedora kernel does
work just fine.  Maybe you could try the Fedora x86_64 kernel 2.6.16-1.2096_FC5
on your gentoo (should just be to unpack the RPM with rpm2cpio and install it as
any other kernel for a quick test). If that works then you have something to
compare with to try to isolate why your kernel isn't working. If that fails then
there is some other difference outside the kernel.
