I had a problem with my clock drifting after I used hwclock to reset my time after I moved to a new time zone: the box had been on 15 minutes, I set it back an hour, and when I rebooted, the /etc/adjtime adjusted the clock by about four days. so I set it again. Now the durn thing thought it was

Colin, I think that you may be right. Now that I think about it, the problem only seems to occur after linux has been running for a long period of time without a logon (i.e. overnight). I think I have the BIOS configured to kick into sleep mode after a certain time of inactivity. This would make s

Would anyone be able to speculate as to why my system (kernel) clock is slow? I know that my hardware (CMOS) clock is maintaining a time that does not drift more than a CMOS clock normally does, but my kernel clock will lose approximately 4 hours in every 9. I can set the system clock at
