| |
My old 486 test box is losing time at an alarming rate when running 2.6.0-test kernels. It loses almost 2 minutes per hour, less if it sits idle. This problem does not occur when it's running a 2.4 kernel.
There's nothing noteworthy in dmesg.
This has been going on since at least the 2.5.7x kernels, and possible also the 2.5.6x kernels. I strongly suspect a bug in the time-keeping changes in late 2.5 kernels. The 486 has no TSC, and I don't have an NTP server to keep my machines' times in sync.
