[Bug 128367] Re: vmware clock skew on Feisty
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Can you please provide the output of the commands below: - cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep model - cat /sys/module/processor/parameters/max_cstate The problem you describe is a known issue with vmware running on processors using speedstep (or the amd equivalent) and using deeper sleep modes. You can try to prevent using the deeper sleep modes: $ cat /sys/module/processor/parameters/max_cstate # remember the value you get! $ sudo -i # echo 2 > /sys/module/processor/parameters/max_cstate # exit Now you can test the clock accuracy in a vmware machine. Please let us know if this helps. To enable the deeper sleep modes again, use the same commands, but use the value you got from the first command instead of 2. ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- vmware clock skew on Feisty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128367 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
