That's odd.  I've got 2 AMD 64-bit systems at home at the moment, one
running CentOS 5 and the other Mythbuntu/Ubuntu 8.10, and neither have
this drifting clock issue.  No other Linux systems I've had in the
past suffered from this problem either.  Sure, ntpd makes corrections
now and again, but that's its purpose in life.  I did have a problem
with the myth box's clock drifting, but I was reasonably sure it was
because I switched the server sources and forgot to zero out the
/var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift file.  Or, something similarly boneheaded like
that.

Which servers do you guys sync. with?  I usually use [012].pool.ntp.org.
