system clock running 4% fast
Since I built my new amd64 host, my system clock is borked. It runs about 4% fast-- gaining an hour a day. This is way to much gain for ntpd to keep up with. To compensate I've had to set adjtimex --tick 9600, which approximately corrects for the drift. This would be tolerable, except that the drift rate isn't constant. It's all over the place. Right after I boot it's stable at about -50 PPM, but then after a few hours it suddenly goes nuts. Look at the adjustments ntpdate has to make when I run it once a minute: 20 Mar 05:05:58 ntpdate[17703]: step time server 168.75.65.20 offset 0.060836 sec 20 Mar 05:06:55 ntpdate[17724]: step time server 168.75.65.20 offset -0.514396 sec 20 Mar 05:07:53 ntpdate[17734]: step time server 168.75.65.20 offset 0.263715 sec 20 Mar 05:08:51 ntpdate[17740]: step time server 168.75.65.20 offset -0.047366 sec 20 Mar 05:09:48 ntpdate[17746]: step time server 168.75.65.20 offset -0.215751 sec 20 Mar 05:10:45 ntpdate[17755]: step time server 168.75.65.20 offset -0.646224 sec 20 Mar 05:11:42 ntpdate[17763]: step time server 168.75.65.20 offset -1.274522 sec No wonder ntpd can't keep up. The drift rate is all over the place. I'm running a custom 64-bit kernel 2.6.15. CPU is Athlon64 X2 4200+, chipset is nForce4.

However, 80% or more of the discussion seems to be about the AMD/ATI bug, which applies to the combination of AMD processors with some ATI chipsets (not sure which one). I don't have an ATI chipset. Still, I've tried all of the following boot parameters that people have recommended for this problem: disable_timer_pin_1 (my host won't boot) no_timer_check noapic acpi=off clock=pmtmr notsc I also disabled CPU frequency spread spectrum in the BIOS. The result is always the same-- the clock is stable after I boot, but a few hours later it goes nuts again. Help! How can I fix my system clock? Do I a hardware problem? How can I tell?

Mount/fstab problem
A few days ago I tried out gnome on my debian sid amd64 installation. For some reason, everytime I started gnome, nautilus would pop up with a little window where it demonstrated the files on a backup partition. This partition is clearly set to noauto in fstab, but I couldn't stop gnome from mounting it.I decided kde worked better for me, and uninstalled gnome. The backup partition doesn't get mounted when I enter the desktop anymore, but the funny thing is that now the /proc file system is not being mounted at boot (like it did before), and hence ooffice gives me warning and sound doesn't work in wine. I have followed the instructions in the AMD 64 howto to the letter, and had not altered fstab when the problems occured. Both these issues go away when if I su to root and do mount -a, which shows fstab is fine, doesn't it?Anyone know what's going on? Is my problem some kind of rest from the gnome installation, or is nautilus behaviour and the present issues just a coincident?Please help,Land Haj Yahoo!

Can someone suggest a system like this that is known to run Debian amd64? I suspect one of the Tyan boards would fit the bill. I don't personally use Tyan (I use Asus) and I don't use rackmount (so hence no problem there). I know the nforce chipsets in general have fairly decent support in Linux. I believe the AMD chipsets do too. No idea how the ServerWorks for opteron are doing Linux wise. As for PCI, well usually you can get a 90degree adapter to put at least one pci slot in a rackmount. More than that often means custom board for a specific case design is required. Maybe this problem has been solved now, but I certainly haven't seen it done yet, other than custom systems (like IBM, etc). 1U is just a pain for expansion cards. Maybe this is what you are wanting: http://www.tyan.com/products/html/gt20b3870.html (1 PCI-X slot) http://www.tyan.com/products/html/gt24b2891.html (1 PCI-X and 1 PCIe slots). They have lots more, but most have just one expansion slot. 4 SATA drives seem standard, and they can even be hotswap it seems. I don't think linux supports hotswap in libata yet, but it is being worked on. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Can someone suggest a system like this that is known to run Debian amd64? I suspect one of the Tyan boards would fit the bill. I don't personally use Tyan (I use Asus) and I don't use rackmount (so hence no problem there). I know the nforce chipsets in general have fairly decent support in Linux. I believe the AMD chipsets do too. No idea how the ServerWorks for opteron are doing Linux wise. As for PCI, well usually you can get a 90degree adapter to put at least one pci slot in a rackmount. More than that often means custom board for a specific case design is required. Maybe this problem has been solved now, but I certainly haven't seen it done yet, other than custom systems (like IBM, etc). 1U is just a pain for expansion cards. Maybe this is what you are wanting: http://www.tyan.com/products/html/gt20b3870.html (1 PCI-X slot) http://www.tyan.com/products/html/gt24b2891.html (1 PCI-X and 1 PCIe slots). One expansion slot is OK, but I need it to be 32-bit standard PCI. The problem is that the boards now have switched to PCI-Express to complement PCI-X, and there are no framegrabber cards for these slots yet. The first PCI-Express grabber cards are on the way, but they have no Linux support. I have a Tyan machine and am very happy with it, but it doesn't look like they have a 1U with 32-bit PCI. Obviously not a common combination. Dave They have lots more, but most have just one expansion slot. 4 SATA drives seem standard, and they can even be hotswap it seems. I don't think linux supports hotswap in libata yet, but it is being worked on. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Indeed, it's there -- the Transport GT20 (B2865) comes with the option of a PCI slot and is just the ticket! I had looked around the Tyan site and missed it.
