Hi Folks, I have seen them messages a couple of times: "strage clock drift" and so on. 
I usually thought, that this
is some setup problem or some hardware prob, but now I got affected and I found the 
sucker.


I played around with kde and adjusted the clock via kde's little config programm 
kcmshell clock yesterday. Then
today I realised, that my clock was off by about 11 hours, I set the clock in bios to 
the correct time again, then
after a boot into gentoo the clock was 11 hours off again. I did this about 3 times, 
and everytime the clock script
set the time 11h back. Since that clock didn't have a problem for the last couple of 
month on this install I
figured it had something to do with the kde proggie, so I looked around and checked 
everything manually, the setup
in the config files was still okay, since I saw, that the clock script checks 
/etc/adjtime  I decided to delete
this file and bingo that did it. So I assume, there is some bug in the kde prog, it 
somehow fucks up and then
adjtime is bad.

So if you come across this problem, tell those folks to delete /etc/adjtime
