Anyone knows a way to fix clock problems which occurs into kernel 2.6.12-22mdksmp (x86-64)? Basically under motherboard MSI K8N Diamond, and MSI K8N Diamond plus (the same happens on three different machines so sound a problem of our kernel), the internal clock is not going to be right (and even trying to sincronize to an external source using NTP is not enough, since the drift happens anyway). The differences between internal clock and right clock goes after one day to 8-10 hours. I tried to boot the machines specifying on both the option clock=tsc in lilo.conf, but it's not enough. The error between internal clock and official time is always high. Is there a way to fix this? And why ntp is not enough to keep the time in sync? Thanks Bye Giuseppe.
