Bug Description
I hope this isn't a duplicate of Bug #273313:
I upgraded from Intrepid to Jaunty and now every hour or so my PC (DELL Vostro 1000 w/ Turion 64) logs out. dmesg says:
"Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -301051707 ns)"
I read that it is possible to add 'notsc' to kernel line (did so but I haven't rebooted yet. Anyway it worked before and should work by default).
I didn't notice a longer boot time as mentioned in Bug #261794 or Bug #190414
Will report if notsc changed anything. And will try clocksource=... shenanigans then.
Setting the governor to performance is not an option. It's a laptop after all...
