Yes, that is checked. >Also do you have the 'open-vm-tools' installed (i.e. is vmtoolsd running >which is what does the time sync to the Host every 60 seconds). Ah, I do not have open-vm-tools installed. I recall way back in the past that installing this caused several display problems, so I removed it and never noticed a problem. I should re-install it and see if it fixes the issue without causing other problems. (I've verified that installing ntp also "fixes" the problem, but you need to add "tinker panic 0" to /etc/ntp.conf otherwise if your VM is suspended for a long time, ntp will refuse to synchronize.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157914 Title: time never catches up to reality after VM sleep To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1157914/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
