[lug] clock not setting

[Harris, James A (Jim)]

Just curious?  Do you have APM/ACPI enabled in your BIOS, and if so, do you
have APM support running under Linux?  I believe that if your machine goes
to a lower power mode and the kernel and daemons aren't running to manage
it, one of the first things to go is the system time.

I THOUGHT I was done with my RH6.1 install. BUT the clock will not
stay set to the right time. I tried setting it with "date" and also
with "linuxconf" but it resets itself after a while. I have only
noticed it after my screensaver has been on for a while. I haven't
been at my terminal long enough actively to see if the clock screws
itself up while in an active session.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
