problem with system clock

[Dario Rossi <dario@it.colt.net>]

Hello,
i have a etch installation, daily updated.

I am experiencing a problem with  system clock infact it "suddenly"
started running at half speed ( means that if i run "sleep 2", it takes
more or less  4 seconds to complete).

I recompiled the kernel upgrading it from 2.6.18 to 2.6.19, but the
problem remained.

I had an installation of vmware (just a test) and it seems that
everything started after i've  removed it...
Could it be possible?


Do u see any possible solution?

Thanks a lot.

Dario
