If it was a kernel bug I'd have seen it here, as would the many others who've run that kernel for thousands of hours. I suspect something in the application is loading down the kernel and causing it to lose ticks. 1000 ticks is pretty fast for a Geode. Do these machines have HPET clocks? HPET is broken by design. -- John Hasler [email protected] Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI USA _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
