Case solved temporarily, the thing I did was to put the "good" ntp servers: $ hwclock && date Tue 29 May 2007 07:57:28 PM CEST -0.175399 seconds Tue May 29 19:27:30 CEST 2007
ntp servers used (in this order in /etc/ntp.conf): server chronos.csr.net server ntp2a.mcc.ac.uk server ntp2b.mcc.ac.uk The server doesn't have to be the closest to you, as long as it's precise, i.e. belongs to the so called "Stratum One" (closer to *precision*) group, you can find them here: http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock1a.html http://ntp.isc.org/bin/view/Servers/StratumOneTimeServers Most servers (if not all) in the "select ntp server" list in ubuntu are stratum one, but i believe ntp.ubuntu.com brakes that. europe.pool.ntp.org wasn't a good idea either. That's all I changed, and restarted the ntp daemon: $ sudo /etc/init.d/ntp restart -- time jumps ahead 10-20 minutes no matter the ntp server https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104091 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
