To: freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Date: Thu, 4 Feb 1999 04:02:22 +0000 (GMT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL40 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG After upgrading 3.0-RELEASE to -stable I noticed various time related things have been acting strange. Obviously one of the timers is running extremely slow, since effects have been observed such as: reported ping times are about 35 times shorter than actual values. 'date' increments at a rate of one or two seconds per minute. 'shutdown -r now' announces the shutdown about a minute later and 'reboot' seems to hang indefinitely requiring Ctrl-Alt-Del to sync the disks. So I tried upgrading to 4.0-current and it still misbehaves in this way. Is this a known problem? Any ideas? This is an AMD K5-PR90 with VIA chipset, world compiled -O2 and kernel compiled -O without options MATH_EMULATE or FAILSAFE if that makes any difference. -- Adam David To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
