[coLinux-users] CoLinux Interrupt Timer runs way too high??

[Aaron S. <as...@in...>]

I got coLinux to run great on one of my Win2k Boxes.

I have another Win2k box that seems to peg the CPU when I start coLinux =
with the same image.

I tried several different root images.  All of my tests have been with =
coLinux 0.6.0 using the provided kernel.

When I run top, it seems to update way too quickly.  If I type 'date', =
wait 10 seconds and type 'date' again, the system clock gains several =
hours!.  Also if I do a 'vmstat', I get huge interrupt counts.   If I =
keep doing 'cat /proc/interrupts', it shows the timer is sending tens of =
thousans of interrupts per second.  If I peg the cpu with a linux =
program and wait a few minutes, the problem seems to go away.  Similarly =
if I peg the cpu with a windows program, the problem seems to go away.  =
About 15 seconds after the cpu becomes idle, the timer interrupts go =
through the roof again.

I'm not sure what to do.

Suggestions?
