Hi,

I have a problem with my ASUS P5A-B motherboard, where the timer
runs too fast.  This is with -CURRENT, cvsup'd from 1.5 weeks ago.

I encountered this problem before, and found a fix which worke;:
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=145760+0+archive/2002/freebsd-current/20020915.freebsd-current

However, this fix (adding kern.timecounter.hardware=i8254 to /etc/sysctl.conf)
does not seem to work anymore.  The clock still runs too fast.

Here are my sysctl values for kern.timecounter

kern.timecounter.nbinuptime: 450054
kern.timecounter.nnanouptime: 3
kern.timecounter.nmicrouptime: 0
kern.timecounter.nbintime: 21313
kern.timecounter.nnanotime: 15
kern.timecounter.nmicrotime: 21298
kern.timecounter.ngetbinuptime: 0
kern.timecounter.ngetnanouptime: 95
kern.timecounter.ngetmicrouptime: 60405
kern.timecounter.ngetbintime: 0
kern.timecounter.ngetnanotime: 0
kern.timecounter.ngetmicrotime: 142134
kern.timecounter.hardware: i8254
kern.timecounter.tick: 10000

Any ideas?

Thanks.
