I've added Tor Egge's "kludge" fix of adding

        while (rtcin(RTC_INTR) & RTCIR_PERIOD)
                statclock(&frame);

..to the beginning of clkintr() in /sys/i386/isa/clock.c, but when will
there be a genuine fix?  Is this an Asus problem?  We are two BIOS
revisions behind...would upgrading to the latest (1010. 07/29/99) help
[this problem]?

Does the problem (or the kludge) affect anything other than top and
systat?

Thanks,
