getting sysclock to match hwclock

[Patrik Magnusson <patrik@pedgr634.sn.umu.se>]

My system clock has been keeping time rather poorly. The
hardware-clock on the other hand hasn't lost a second in
over two months. 

I tried to use adjtimex to get the system clock to match the 
hardware clock, unsuccessfully. First i tried adjtimex --adjust
resulting in the system clock losing more than five minutes in 
a day. Then I tried adjtimex -u --adjust, resulting in the
system clock losing 20 minutes a day.

I just want the system clock to match the hardware clock.
Please help.
