Hi, i am running a IBM Thinkpad R32 featuring a Mobile Pentium 4 1,7Ghz with Debian testing. Most stuff works under Linux quite good, but there still some broken things. Probably the most annoying thing is that the time is always out of sync. First I thought it might be a hardware problem, a defect clock chip or something like that. But I noticed that this time shift only happens, when the Laptop is running or in suspend mode. If I sync the time with an internet NTP Server short before i switch off the laptop, the bios shows a correct time at the next boot. Investigating this problem I found out that the 2.4.20 feature a function with offers switching off something called TSC, I tried this because it was a patch from IBM about a problem related to a wrong time working time stamp counter and described as necessary even for some laptops. Unfortunately this option isn't documented very well and what it is even worse, it doesn't fix the problem. What do you think? A hardware problem and I should send the notebook to IBM (still in guarantee time) or a software problem related to speedstep or something like this? ( I switched in the bios all settings to the most power saving ones)
nicholas P.S.: I read in the archive about one trying to get DRI running with the Mobility M6 LY, can#t answere in Thread because i just subscribed. Faced the same problem. The DRI Code of XFree 4.2.x is too old, you have too replaced it by the code of the dri project or a already patch xserver i.e. drm-trunk. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
