A couple of things to investigate: 1. Make sure that the first line of /etc/adjtime contains very small values. In fact, you might just want to replace the first line with "0.0 0 0.0". 2. Take a look at the clock= settings in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt. Maybe you need clock=pit. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
