I've two machines running gentoo: one is alpha(ds10) another is sparc SunFire v100. On both offset is about 200-300ms poll does not go over 64, is this poor synchronization quality is normal with 2.4 kernel? (I remember that under 2.2 on alpha it was pretty better) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Hmmm where is the bug? I suggest you to ask this question in the forums (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewforum.php?f=27) or on the mailing list. You'll rather get a quick answer there... :)
