 ntpd is running also.
 Can nobody tell where the problem is here?
 
 Are you sure that your /etc/ntp.conf ist correct?
 
 
 # cat /etc/ntp.conf
 
 server time.fu-berlin.de iburst maxpoll 9
 driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift
 logfile /var/log/ntpd

Add a few more servers, for example reloj.kjsl.com (I run it).

Also add:

server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 4

It should improve the clock stability while you're not connected to the 
Internet.

clock problem

2004-08-05 Thread Ted Unangst
I have an IBM thinkpad T40 running FreeBSD 4.10.  It does not support 
apm, and acpi made the system very flaky.  This hardly matters, since 
the BIOS suspend function still works.  However, when I open the lid, 
the system clock is set to the same time it was when I closed the lid. 
ie, close lid at 6:30pm, open lid at 9:00am next morning, and 'date' 
tells me the time is 6:31pm yesterday.

This seems to be a matter of the system time relying on timecounters 
only.  How do I disable this behavior, or have it use the CMOS clock?

Interesting sysctl values:
machdep.disable_rtc_set: 0
machdep.wall_cmos_clock: 1
machdep.i8254_freq: 1193182
machdep.tsc_freq: 1594833412
kern.timecounter.method: 0
kern.timecounter.hardware: TSC

After picking a better search phrase, it seems I'm having this problem:

Any more insight appreciated.
