That should be fixed, yes. > And ICH 0-4 does not support HPET and should be removed from code.... Not quite, ICH3 and ICH4 do have HPET, just undocumented by Intel. There's been kernel support to force-enable it since 2007 which obviously works fine and has been tested by various people since then. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=158ad3260ba3b006e3c6dfad05298e9d7889c5b1 So I think we should keep the ICH3/4 code around (ICH0-ICH2 can be safely dropped I guess).
