Is a current of last week (2010-01-18) sufficient? I haven't seen any commits to the clock subsystem in the meantime, so it should be sufficient. Verbose dmesg, sysctl and much more can be found here: http://www.secnetix.de/olli/dmesg/hs22/ (It's with the "broken" kernel, i.e. with the above-mentioned revisions not reverted.) If 2010-01-18 isn't sufficient, I'll have to update, but that will take some time. The machine has no network, and I don't have physical access to it, so it's a little troublesome to get any files to/from it. IBM's painful remote console app doesn't even support copy&paste. :-( Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co. KG, Marktplatz 29, 85567 Grafing b. M.
