irq timeout error

if this is an error that can be safely ignored? Or will it affect the build in some way? If it will affect the build how would I go about fixing the problem?

long enough to compile without being 'nice'. Does the clock moving only a tick or two during the entire build break it? No, it doesn't seem to break the build. It's just annoying. Mykal Funk -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs

. The time loss occurs only under high load. When uptime reports a high load average, the system loses time like crazy. When it is just sitting doing nothing it keeps perfect time. I don't know what to make of it. Perhaps someone else can. Mykal Funk -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman
