>Description:
As cvsupdated today (29th October 2004, did buildworld/installworld and built new kernel (SMP/PREEMPTION as addiotional options to GENERIC and disabled a bunch of unused drivers, hardware ASUS CUR-DLS, RCC Server Works LE 3.0 chipset, SCSI equipemnt, no ATA drives, dual CPU 866Mhz PIII, 1GB RAM (2x 512 MB)) I can not use 'systat -vmstat 1' anymore as I could use before. In FreeBSD 5.3-BETA I realized this fault the first time and wondering this is back again.

Typing the above mentioned command results in "The alternate system clock has died. Reverting to ''pigs'' display". 
>How-To-Repeat:
Don't know whether this occurs on other hardware platforms than RCC/Server Works based mainboards.
