Yes, There was an upgrade to ntp, but I configured ntp.conf and my system time is perfect. It was fine before I did all my upgrades yesterday, so don't know what changed to make these messages appear today. > > Also, are you dual booting with windoze?

Yes, I dual boot with Windoze. However, I don't remember the last time I booted into Windoze - ages ago and again, up until yesterday, I never saw these messages.
