Hm, I just learned something interesting about my clock issue... good
thing that I was saving dmesgs for warner:

Nov 13, 2003:
CPU: Mobile Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1.60GHz (1594.98-MHz 686-class CPU)

Apr 10, 2004, with ACPI:
CPU: Mobile Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1.60GHz (1556.71-MHz 686-class CPU)

Apr 10, 2004, without ACPI:
CPU: Mobile Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1.60GHz (1575.84-MHz 686-class CPU)

today, without ACPI:
CPU: Mobile Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1.60GHz (1575.84-MHz 686-class CPU)

I also noticed this today from vmstat -i:

interrupt                          total       rate
irq0: clk                         746040        986
irq8: rtc                          95484        126

That should be 1000 & 128, if I'm not mistaken.  Are these all symptoms of
some timing code during boot messing up?

Thanks,

Mike "Silby" Silbersack
