I found the source of the clock hanging.
It occurred when modprobing l440gx.ko
# cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
acpi_pm <-- Problem is here. tsc clocksource is choosen on my tyan
1832dl
To solve:
# echo "tsc" \
> /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
Clock shows it's running now.
Your tip about the timing/timer helped a lot.
