Well I don't think it's a kernel problem. I too have a Intellistation M Pro
(6898-22U to be specific) and here's what I get:

$ cat /proc/interrupts ;date
0: 14448182 timer
1: 57218 keyboard
2: 0 cascade
3: 5114 3c509
10: 1581464 Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 Ethernet
12: 536407 PS/2 Mouse
13: 512293 + IPI
14: 232372 + ide0
15: 0 + ide1

$ cat /proc/interrupts ;date
0: 14448350 timer
1: 57224 keyboard
2: 0 cascade
3: 5114 3c509
10: 1581480 Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 Ethernet
12: 536407 PS/2 Mouse
13: 512356 + IPI

looks like 2 seconds = 200 on my machine...

PS this is on kernel 2.0.36, but I've never seen my clock drift under
2.2.0-pre(anything) either.
