Package: general Version: N/A; reported 2002-08-31 Severity: normal Tags: sid
I don't know what is causing this problem but all I know is that I have narrowed it down to being caused either by a package or by the install system. I installed from the woody install disks then upgraded to sid. What happenes is that the time jumps ahead then back, eg (this is output from "while true; do date;done" Sat Aug 31 19:07:26 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 19:07:26 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 19:07:26 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 19:07:26 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 20:19:01 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 20:19:01 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 20:19:01 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 19:07:27 EDT 2002 Sat Aug 31 19:07:27 EDT 2002 The only thing I did differently then previous installs was I told the installer that it could set the bios go UTC. The only time it is really noticable is when in X, the screensaver kicks in when it jumps. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux beyond.hjsoft.com 2.4.18 #1 SMP Sat Aug 31 10:49:35 EDT 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- no debconf information
