Bad clock

Hi,

I have a problem with my clock. Indeed, it works too quickly. A few seconds by hour...
Do you have this problem ?

I must have a cron with ntpdate to resolve that.

I have this problem since I installed Arch, with many kernels...

Thanks,

Nicolas

Re: Bad clock

Do you dualboot?

Re: Bad clock

Yes, but it's not a problem...
I never boot on Windows.

Maybe same case?
If you don't use windows, then set your clock to UTC in /etc/rc.conf
I have it like that and never had problems- but I also don't have my partitions in ext3 filesystem.

Re: Bad clock

If you are overclocking your PC, you can have this problem. I know, I've had it! I just run ntp in my startup script, or if you leave it on all the time, cron it every hour.

Re: Bad clock

No, I don't practice overclocking...
It's not normal I must launch a cron evevry hour...

I haven't got this problem in others distributions (Gentoo, Debian).

Re: Bad clock

I have the same clock behavior here, only on Arch. Not very annoying because of my cron rule, but strange...
