My hardware clock, the actual RTC is keeping rock solid time.  My

the time.  That output is perfect.  Its only the time in the

Then I have to ask again, have you deleted the /etc/adjtime file?  My
understanding is that sets the correction factor for the kernel "system
clock".  Get it to run correctly before you start messing with NTPD,
IMO.

Yeah, I deleted the /etc/adjtime file, played with hwclock, played with
ntp, etc.  Its just no workie.  <sigh>.

Have you yet tried the boot parameter "clock=pit" as I suggested initially?
