Ronald ... sounds like it is not the linux but rather the system clock in
your computer.
So is it possible that you have your power supply set to EU 50 cycles instead
of
US 60 cycles (just a guess) .. so boot with a DOS disk sometime, manually
set the
time from DOS prompt .. go away for 24 hours then check it again .. bet it
is still
fast.
I had computer once that LOST time (because of too little memory and having
to
always swap and spool), but don't know about GAINING time other than the
machine itself. Maybe you have "overclocked" something too(?)
