Yes, I am pretty sure you are right about the timing. But it shouldn't be that way. If it is, then there's a bug.

I'm fully willing to accept there is something else I should be doing driver-wise, but it shoudn't require recompiling the stock distribution kernels. Otherwise, Linux is not competitive with Microsoft Windows in this regard!

I'll try a recompile and report back. In the meantime, if anyone else has any ideas, please let me know!


Yes, I agree that it would be a bug. If it turns out to be related to
CONFIG_HZ, ask your distro why they rolled it back from 1000 to 250Hz.

If this turns out to be tied to the HZ rate its a bug. It _should_ not be using
this timing to do this ergo bug. You may be able to bypass by using 1000Hz
but this is not a fix...
