Now that you mention it, I do have some new problems that have shown up. The v2.4.11 kernel is still running, but the clock is screwed up. I have noticed this in several ways: 1) the console latency was noticeable right away; just did not respond as quickly as it should 2) when running "top", it does not recycle on it'w own. I have to hit the space bar to update the screen 3) my cron jobs did not run last night. restarted cron, then noticed the time/date was wrong; reran ntpdate, ntp. this updated the time to the correct time; then noticed the clock was not changing as fast as it should 4) ran a cpu-intensive job last night that should have taken about 3 hours to complete; but the cpu time indicates it used about 1 hour; I don't think the new kernel made the machine run 3-times faster! The RTC is enabled in the kernel. Perhaps I should try with it disabled? Is it no longer needed in the new kernel? -- James D.
