Does anyone have handy a precompiled bering kernel that is configured with 
CONFIG_MELAN=y ?

That option is necessary for the gettimeofday() clock to be correct on the
soekris boards using the AMD/Elan processor.

The stock kernel results in this kind of error from ntpd because the
interval timer's clock frequency is different on the Elan from that on a 
standard PC.  Uncorrected, timeofday falls behind about four minutes a day.

Related, will the bering patches work on a vanilla 2.4.23 or 2.4.22 
kernel? (I have those kernel.org sources handy)

thanks, 
Steve
