But I have one Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.8 on a VIA8237 My latest suspect of the root of the problem of my computer is not in Processor but in those VIAs. As you find that "don't provide an entry to the HPET timer on acpi tables" it match, but how do you know that ?

I try your patch and it give me this differences on dmesg (file attach), detect a different timer.c but no improvement without notsc boot option and with notsc the computer got worst. > -- Sérgio M.B.
