Hi! The clock in FreeBSD is too fast! I tried GENERIC kernel, the BSD clock is still too fast. the problem is on 5.0 Release, 5.1 BETA1, and 5.1 BETA2. I have not yet tried 4.x. I'm using PII 366Mhz Acer notebook w/ 192mb RAM ALi Chipset but there is no problem on Win98 and Linux(Redhat 8) I guess, in a Windows system, the timing function read time from CMOS(Hardware Clock), where as FreeBSD just add itself which is too dangerous for a server. Hope the problem will be solved in future. good luck. Eric. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
