trend, debian eeepc is a laptop, which means that often i'm using it with gprs network connectivity, where i need to pay for the bytes. i don't know how much running ntp would consume in an hour. this morning i setup ppp connection and run ntpdate-debian at 07:34:35 now about four hours later when i run ntdate-debian again, it reports 899 seconds offset: r...@rautu:~# ntpdate-debian 12 May 11:41:37 ntpdate[26601]: step time server 194.100.2.198 offset 899.850821 sec which is quite a lot. how is is possible that a modern laptop has lots its ability to keep its time straight? i don't remember seeing this kind of behavior with my earlier laptops. -- juha _______________________________________________ Debian-eeepc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-eeepc-devel
