Bug#312973: kernel-image-2.6.11-1-686: system clock drifts ahead of hardware clock

[Chris Howie <crazycomputers@yahoo.com>]

Package: kernel-image-2.6.11-1-686
Version: 2.6.11-5
Severity: important

After upgrading from kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686, the system clock drifts
ahead of the hardware clock approximately two minutes per hour,
sometimes more.  It's not uncommon for it to drift 2 full hours in 7
hours' time.

I recently tested again with 2.6.8, and it does not drift even after
about half an hour of operation.
