Re: RTC drift on Walnut?

Thanks. I'm pretty sure its kernel related, I bet something's wrong in
arch/ppc/kernel/time.c. The kernel just reads the RTC at startup, and maintains
the system clok via the timer-interrupts. Coming to think of it, I'm not sure
if the hardware RTC drifts, or if its just the kernel 'software' clock. Will
check on that.

Maybe we're turning ints off for too long somewhere...

Thanks,

Torben;

I am running on what will be the next version of 405 kernel from
MontaVista.  It is using the new todc_time routines.  I saw about a 30
second drift.
