I'll look after that, even if i think that now the clock works again [i've adjusted it a few hours ago and didn't loose a minute]. What i have done was switching from winter to summer time by manually adding one hour to the actual time - maybe my problem has something to do with that; For now i'm going to observe my clock closely; Should it continue to behave strange i'll look at the suggested manpage.
