Hi.
I often received messages like:
Jan 11 14:02:09 lunk kernel: rtc: lost some interrupts at 1024Hz.
Jan 11 14:02:09 lunk kernel: rtc: lost some interrupts at 2048Hz.
Jan 11 14:02:20 lunk last message repeated 548 times
With this guest environment :
OS, ker|rel, machine: Linux, 2.6.27-ARCH, i686
Distribution : Arch Linux (Don't Panic)
The VMWare host is Debian etch on a Dell PowerEdge SC1420 server.
This is not an uncommon problem, but the usual suspects placed on the kernel line did not work for me:
clocksource=pic nosmp noapic nolapic
I found one reference here in the forum to acpi_pm (but not that I could tell with VMWare):
clocksource=acpi_pm
Placing that on the kernel line cured the problem, sort of. The clock rate wanders around a bit, and there are still some messages when I start the desktop -- xfce4 -- but eventually things settle down.
I'm posting this in case someone else runs into the problem ... cheers, drl

For me, my solution was even easier. I just added clocksource=pit nohz=off and problem solved.
They say that if you play a Win cd backward you hear satanic messages. That's nothing! 'cause if you play it forwards, it installs windows.

Hi, kjon.
That's a combination I did not try. Just now I found a note regarding the kernel on Fedora:
Sometimes multiple options are needed, e.g. clocksource=acpi_pm nohz=off highres=off ...

but since the single setting seems to work for me on Arch, I'll keep that. I may try your solution later. Thanks for the reply ... cheers, drl
