thanks for the response So far as I can tell I have not had ntp on my system, I have not put it on myself the only way it could have been on is if it were a default during original install of Gentoo in which case --depclean ought not to have removed it as it should "belong" to something [world , system ]
I may give up on chrony and put a ntp on and see if that cures it, though I prefer not to just mask a problem if there is one, could a clock slowdown be something as serious as an indication of hardware problems? stu On 8/30/05, A.
