Hi,
Since yesterday, some processes are really slow on my Lenny/Sid.
KDE clock is 10 hours late, bash is really really slow, keyboard
repetition seems broken or really long to start, etc.
I found this in /var/log/messages:
[1510354.692239] Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = 51799116882 ns)
I generally see messages like that; I always assumed they were
harmless:
Sep 23 00:13:54 lizzie kernel: Clocksource tsc unstable (delta =
-85149529 ns)

Thank you for your answer.
Today, this message is not harmless: many things are so slow...
As I don't want to reboot my Debian (so bad to do that !), I'm
waiting for possible fixes from the list and Google too.
Strangely Icedove & Firefox are ok, so I can read/write e-mails...
Apache/PHP/mySQL are a little slow too.
In general functionalities that require a specific timing are really
slow, even the bash/Konsole completion beep that spends about 10
seconds !
Any idea ?

I doubt the "Clocksource tsc unstable"-error causes the slowness, as
that is a common error on some of my machines too. Apparently
something is hogging your system. Can you give us the result of top?

Since my last mail, I rebooted the machine (using reset, init 6 wasn't
able to reboot after a few minutes).
Just before reseting, top was long to start displaying stats and then it
started to work nice (normal speed) and showed 9999% CPU usage on
certain processes !
It was not often the case, some stats snaps looked good.
Then, I had troubles when I logged into KDE: it first failed (kind of
freeze while waiting for something that never comes), I restarted X
(ctrl+alt+backspace) and then KDE login was ok.
In KDE, I now see that the audio hardware is no more recognized
(according to kmix & amarok/xine (failed to start xine engine)), but
snd* modules seems to be loaded as appropriate...
I wonder about a hardware failure...
This Debian was installed a month ago and I didn't any problem before,
even on the Fedora I had before for a year on this hardware.
/var/log/messages also reports some ACPI errors & warnings (but I don't
really understand them):
