If it were the other way round (hwclock influencing systime) the most likely explanation would be the clock battery on the motherboard running low. No idea what's causing the observed behaviour. Failing that, xntp is an easy way to (semi)automatically set the systime via a time server; urpmi xntp will install it and its home page is: http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ I don't bother with the daemon but, every so often, do ntpdate ntp0.strath.ac.uk Alastair - -- Alastair Scott (London, United Kingdom) http://www.unmetered.org.uk/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9Lov5Cv59vFiSU4YRAqrNAKCyICsg/ZCSkeLjjeLliONmvRp3UACglO3g +4/8DD/hUJajcUL4edFmuAg= =l6St -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
