Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Unfortunately we can't fix it, because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" <http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html>. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.
We have instructions on debugging some types of problems. <http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures> Thanks! |

No matter which ntp server I choose, the time jumps ahead after a day or so for 10 to 20 minutes. It looks as if the timer is not correct when counting.
I'll try without the ntp synchronizing, just to see if this relies to the time/date panel in gnome-panel. |

Edit: the problem looks to be the clock applet itself, it does not keep a steady timer, it jumps ahead 10-20 minutes after several hours. |

Other people have confirmed this bug.
Although it is still unclear where the error comes from.
It is however clear that quite a few people are experiencing time shifting. |

Update:
This problem is called "systematic time drift", it seems to happen a lot and it is explained in the manual page:
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/hwclock
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/13684
One solution is to install package: adjtimex

Update 2: I disabled spread spectrum and some overclocking options in BIOS. Now the clock skew / time difference is only minimal!
