I think this is caused the patch to use gettimeofday(), which breaks if time ever moves backwards. Lots of other things break if time moves backwards, too, but most don't care if it moves backwards by only a second or so. UML does care. To work around it, avoid moving time backwards (ntpd and ntpdate both have switches to avoid this and always use adjtimex() instead.) -- `The copyright file is for everyone. That we make it available in plain-text, uncompressed form rather than in spinning, throbbing OpenGL-rendered 3D text over a thumping dance music soundtrack is a feature, not a bug.' --- Branden Robinson |
