Problem with internal clock. Mainly, clock is coordinated by BIOS in old operating systems, so an overclock/change of FSB (on old system also) could affect the clock. Mainly, the internal clock use the same FSB in order to know the track of time. I knew a friend of mine who had a computer 486dx overclocked from 100 to 120 MHz and his clock was acting weird, running very-very fast. Also, a simply hardware problem (clock not working physically), or BIOS software problem (it's a program after all) could make your clock go mad.
In what I am aware of, I know that Linux has it's own BIOS, so I don't think your clock is damaged in this direction. The only thing I can think is an overclock / software problem on your linux kernel side. What you can do, is to try to find out if your computer is overclocked (mainly new computers know how to handle change of FSB, I belive Linux is not so bad at this, but who knows) and also try recompile a kernel (not recommended). I don't belive the second option is a valid one.
