Public bug reported:
Description:
Recently my system time (as reported by the date command and the clock-applet)
has been losing about 2 minutes per hour. versus the real time (both hwclock
and my watch, phone, etc - which are all reasonably in sync).
This started occuring ~ 1 week ago, without ntpd installed.
I installed ntpd to try and 'fix' the problem, however my system time is
never updated and my clocks still drift apart (with the hwclock
remaining correct).
I'm not sure of the source of the problem though its possibly:
1. A kernel bug - the original drift problem (though there hasn't been a recent
kernel update AFAIK), or
2. ntpd, as it never syncs the clock to any servers. (time was over two hours
out after leaving my pc on over the weekend).
hwclock is correct so i'm pretty sure its not a hw problem.
This is on an updated Gutsy release.
Expected behaviour:
Correct time (system time updates at the correct rate, or ntpd keeps it correct)
Actual behaviour:
Time loses ~2 minutes per hour.
Cheers,
Andrew
