Strange, my clock problems passed away with kernel 2.6.7.
As far as I know, it has something to do with wrong ACPI implementations
of some BIOS. After some changes/corrections of the ACPI kernel code the
kernel has to blacklist some boards or provide fixes.
I have a nforce2 based ASUS A7N8X-X board. Doesn't help you, but maybe
you should file a bug report.
