Subject: Patch 2/3: Reduce number of get_cmos_time_calls.
Date: Sat, 08 Jan 2005 20:42:16 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1105177184.5478.39.camel@desktop.cunninghams> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1105176732.5478.20.camel@desktop.cunninghams>

Change sleep_start from signed to unsigned long. This appears to address
an issue with the clock being occasionally off by around 1 hr 10
minutes.
