Hi.

From the title, you might (maybe) guess this is about the Raspberry Pi,
and NTP.

I've only had the thing a few days, but been experimenting (playing)
with the default NTP behaviour as seen with ntpq -p on the command line.
[]
It's said, that the RasPi, has about the same cpu "grunt" as a 300MHz
Pentium, but I have no way to qualify that statement.
[]
At present, this is all at the "it'd be good if it could be done" state.
As if I don't have too many other projects on the go at this time.


Comments, brickbats, bouquet's etc.

Regards.

Dave,

A small box like that would make a nice NTP server if it can be done. The only (very small) contribution I can make is that for some time I ran NTP with GPS on a Pentium 133 MHz with 48 MB of memory using FreeBSD, so you CPU-grunt is at least adequate. Rebuilding the kernel to add PPS support was an overnight job, though!

[Although the two jitters of 180 milliseconds in your ntpq -p billboard is not encouraging!]

Cheers,
David GM8ARV
