Sadly ntpd would not work in this case, as ntpd can only handle a skew of, |

IIRC, around 43 seconds per hour. |

I've just been through something similar with my mac mini, it would lose |
| 10 |
several minutes an hour. I used adjtimex to alter the TICK value slightly |
| 11 |
(from 10000 to 10030), so that ntpd could keep up. |

Jonathans skew is almost certainly the same as the kernel bug posted by Homer. |
