Hi, Can anybody tell me why I see things like : Jan 16 10:37:15 owl kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 56 to 7 Jan 16 10:38:16 owl kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 56 to 8 Jan 16 10:39:17 owl kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 56 to 9 Jan 16 10:40:18 owl kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 56 to 10 in /var/log/messages . Is it a harware problem ? Or a problem with xntpd ? In addition hwclock seems to hang forever if I try to show ( or set ) the hardware clock. I'm running 2.2.12-20smp kernel compiled from the kernel-source-2.12-20.... package. peter ---- Peter Skensved Email : peter @ SNO . Phy. QueensU .
