1 I am sure that the CMOS battery is dead in this old box and this may be
2 related to it, but the error persists even when I restart chronyd after I set
3 the date manually:
4
5 chronyd[3105]: Fatal error: settimeofday() failed
6 chronyd[3424]: Could not settimeofday
7 chronyd[3105]: Fatal error: settimeofday() failed
8 chronyd[3424]: Fatal error: settimeofday() failed
9
10 This is what syslog shows:
