During boot we get date and time from h/w RTC chip and then it runs pn software tick, which is handled by kernel. We are getting 4 minutes drift for 21 hours. Can any one suggest, how to reduce the drift. thnax in advance, pjmaiya [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/html, Size: 809 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
