Binary package hint: yelp
Using Feisty c/w latest upgrades running in Virtual Machine Ware on Dell
Inspiron 5315 c/w Vista. Clock v.2-18-1 Two problems:
a) In 'manual' mode time shown on clock lags behind actual time. To correct
the clock reading I use the time adjustment window and manually synchronize the
time to the correct time. I have noted that the seconds window changes only
every 4 to 7 actual seconds- - for example, if I have just synchronized the
time and the seconds read '23' they will change to '24' only after an interval
of 4 to 7 actual seconds. Consequently the clock always reads a time that is
lagged behind the actual time.
b) auto synchronization of the time doesn't work at all - the appropriate time
zone (America/Vancouver) and internet servers (clock.tricity.wsu.edu) are
chosen but the synchronization never occurs. The clock simply stops at
whatever time was shown immediately after the reading when the 'adjust time and
date' window was accessed. I have tried various internet servers with the same
lack of results. Auto synchronization doesn't ever seem to occur.
