Hi all

I'm looking for sub-milisecond resolution to nanosleep.

The patches in high-res-timers.sourceforge.net for 2.4.x kernels are available
up to 2.4.20 and do not apply cleanly on 2.4.24.

Is there any other patches to achieve it? I only need this specific
feature (not any additional feature or API)

Maybe a patch that increases HZ and takes into account what that implies
will be enough

Any comment will be greatly appreciated

        Thanks
