unexplained shutdown/restart: 2.2.9 kernel



I am getting unexplained system shutdowns at arbitrary times.  Also
the system clock is being changed when this unexplained shutdown /
restart occurs.  This is best demonstrated by the following entries in
my /var/log/messages file (Debian 2.1)

Jun  9 06:55:21 fea -- MARK --
Jun  9 06:58:01 fea exiting on signal 15
Jun  9 05:01:33 fea syslogd 1.3-3#31: restart.

The clock is set correctly when xntp3 is loaded.  If I manually set
the clock with the BIOS, I notice it is incorrect after this
unexplained restart.

I have recently installed a new motherboard, memory, processor.  All
the other components are the same.  The kernel has been rebuilt to
reflect the new processor (400 Mhx PII).  The motherboard is a modern
Intel (I cannot recall the model number by memory).

I suspect a setting on the BIOS with power management?  Otherwise, I
haven't a clue.  All other aspects of the system are performing
perfectly.  Does anyone have any idea what to look for here?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
