Hi, I run Dragonfly on an Asus P5A mainboard; my clock was running a lot faster than expected, it appeared to be this problem:
http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/mailarchive/bugs/2007-04/msg00037.html all over again. Setting debug.acpi.disabled=timer in loader.conf seems to have solved the problem, as it did in that thread; would it be reasonable to force the use of the i8254 timer on P5A and P5A-B mainboards? Also, the recommended solution on FreeBSD on this board is to use the Time Stamp Counter. Is there any reason dfly doesn't support/detect the TSC on this machine? Thanks, -- vs
