huge clock drift?
Hello
On my new MSI S270 with a Turion, self-compiled kernel 2.6.13-rc2, the
clock (as reported by date, ie gettimeofday call) is drifting
consuderably: in less than 7 hours, the date (an ntpdate is setting it
at boot time) has drifted by -12758 seconds
But the hardware clock (as reported by hwclock) is still right.
The cpu frequency is adjusted by cpufreqd
The loaded modules are:

I already described my hardware (including lspci output) in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2005/06/msg00788.html
Any insights?
What command fills the /etc/adjtime file?
