Re: Linux 2.6.29-rc6

2.6.29-rc6 seems to have trouble running ntpd reliable under load. My 
nagios system has just alerted me of drifting time on the machine upgraded.

2.6.26.8 doesnt have this problem.

The "current_clocsource" is the same on both systems.

$ cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
tsc
