Hi, The new clock code seems to be broken (for me at least) or is there something that I must do/set/configure to make things work again? With kernels build today, both my 90MHz Pentium UP machine and my 266MHz PII SMP machine gain a lot of time. The Pentium gain about 2 seconds per minute and the SMP machine about 1 second per minute. Needless to say xntpd can't cope with a frequency error that big. Previously xntpd and ntp-4 reported a 24ppm error on the Pentium and a -297ppm error on the SMP machine. One other strange thing that I noticed is that "systat -vmstat" on the SMP machine reports the clk0 interrupt rate as 50 and the rtc0 rate as 64, while on the UP machine it is still reported as 100 and 128 like before. Is there something I can try out to fix this? At this rate it will be tomorrow a lot sooner than I anticipated. :-) John -- John Hay -- John.Hay@mikom.csir.co.za To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
