Subject: hpet timers gone?

Hello,

What has happened between 2.6.30.9 and 2.6.32.8 with regard to hpet timers?

dmesg output from 2.6.30.9 does show activity but 2.6.32.8 and beyond don't.
Also /proc/timer_list doesn't show hpet anymore. Also on 2.6.34 no hpet
in timer_list.

relevant .config:
CONFIG_HPET_TIMER=y
CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC=y
CONFIG_HPET=y
CONFIG_HPET_MMAP=y

And I have hpet=force on the kernel commandline for this VIA Epia
LT10000 board.

Any ideas?

Kind regards,
Udo
