No.  This is the `broken statclock' thingy that has to do with APM in ways
I cannot fathom.  ASUS broke this in P2B-DS BIOS revision 1008 or
thereabouts.  Patches have been posted to several mailing lists, I was
wondering whether they've been committed somewhere along the line, and
whether APM was safe for inclusion into a 4.0-CURRENT SMP kernel again.

(Really, world and kernel are in sync, speed and duplex settings on the
 Ethernet card matches the switch, etc.)
