Could the changes done for that in any way alter the timing? BTW I measured the glitches I'm experiencing and the appear to be to happen in intervals of 10 seconds. Again, all I'm changing is the kernel, and even the kernel config is the same. I'd be most grateful for any clues/hints/tips I could follow to resolve this regression. > If you have dynamic PM enabled, does disabling that help? I checked again and there's method=profile and profile=default. Afaict this is not using dynpm, right?
