Host system is OSE svn near r2405 gentoo amd64, VM is 32bit linux with a 2.6.17-gentoo-r7 kernel. The hwclock is ok, but the systemtime drifts for ex. after 5 hours 7 minutes away from the realtime. powernow-k8 on host is enabled. The systemtime on the host is ok. Is this a known bug? A workaround is to run a cron job every hour or with the command ""hwclock -s"" to set the system time from hardware clock. I don't know what windows does, but this could be there a problem too.
