Hi All,
Is there a patch that applies cleanly to 2.6.22.x kernels to
force HPET on.  I have an Intel ICH6 chipset and as far as
I know it should have this functionality but it isn't being
enabled by default.

In addition I have a strange problem with an ethernet interrupt
which is being triggered even though it isn't connected to any
network.  The ouput from powertop is below.


35.9% ( 66.0)       <interrupt> : extra timer interrupt
23.2% ( 42.7)       <interrupt> : eth0, [EMAIL PROTECTED]:0000:00:02.0
11.3% ( 20.7)       <interrupt> : libata
5.4% ( 10.0)       <interrupt> : Intel ICH6, ipw2200
5.3% (  9.7)   hald-addon-cpuf : cpufreq_governor_dbs 
(delayed_work_timer_fn)
4.0% (  7.3)       <interrupt> : acpi
3.4% (  6.3)            kicker : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
2.0% (  3.7)              Xorg : do_setitimer (it_real_fn)
1.1% (  2.0)   thunderbird-bin : futex_wait (hrtimer_wakeup)
0.7% (  1.3)              Xorg : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
0.7% (  1.3)    wpa_supplicant : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
0.5% (  1.0)          kdesktop : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
0.5% (  1.0)            dhcdbd : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
0.5% (  1.0)          kwrapper : do_nanosleep (hrtimer_wakeup)
0.5% (  1.0)     <kernel core> : neigh_table_init_no_netlink 
(neigh_periodic_timer)
0.5% (  1.0)          ifconfig : tg3_open (tg3_timer)

If anyone has any ideas about these I would really appreciate the help.

Cheers,
Kyle
