Re: System time warping around real time problem - please help

[Fionn Behrens]

Ok, I had the system running about a week with "notsc" AND no power
management. No system crashes so far. Nevertheless, I keep getting some
kernel oopses like this from time to time. The call trace suggests that
there is still an issue with timing.

Do you have any more ideas regarding this issue? I'd hate trying to send
the board in for a check...
