Thanks, I'll look into chrony. Ya, I've never had this serious of a drift before. Here is some drift info, in case you are interested: vertigo:~# python drift-test.py -s pool.ntp.org 10 15 Apr 09:14:56 offset: 0.081674 drift: 22401.3333333 ppm 15 Apr 09:15:07 offset: 0.409953 drift: 28248.7857143 ppm 15 Apr 09:15:19 offset: 0.734122 drift: 27678.9230769 ppm 15 Apr 09:15:30 offset: 1.051257 drift: 28021.2702703 ppm 15 Apr 09:15:41 offset: 1.341924 drift: 27655.2916667 ppm ... The clock source is currently HPET, I've heard of people disabling ACPI to fix the drift, or specifying a different clock source.. but I'm not sure which is the solution... Anyway, thanks guys. I'll try chrony, and perhaps some other tricks... --ponga -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
