You need either pm_timer or hpet in order to switch to highres /

Yes, both were enabled.
However, since this board is very old
(bios is dated 2000), I had "acpi=off".
Now removing that, makes the hrtimers to
work.
Does this mean that on even an older
boards (without acpi at all) the hrtimers
won't work?

Thanks!
