[SOLVED]eeePC's SHE causes system clock to run too fast

I have Asus eee pc 1201n. When I switch the super hybrid engine (SHE) to performance setting, system clock starts running too fast (Gains like a minute every 5 minutes or so).
If I keep SHE to normal or powersave I don't have such problem.
Any ideas how to make system clock work correctly with SHE working on Performance?

Had similar trouble with laptop-mode-tools. laptop-mode makes clock faster

Re: [SOLVED]eeePC's SHE causes system clock to run too fast

from linux-source/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

notsc        [BUGS=X86-32] Disable Time Stamp Counter

and

no_timer_check    [X86,APIC] Disables the code which tests for broken timer IRQ sources.

but franky I wasn't too happy with these parameters - just omitted the whole laptop-mode-tools-package.

If the solution works for you - pls mark the thread solved.

Re: [SOLVED]eeePC's SHE causes system clock to run too fast

Yeah, that solution works, and I found those, just can't understand what they mean, if you could clarify...

Yeah, marking it as solved now, I'm rusty, forgot how this forum's supposed to work...
