DragonFlyBSD doesn't seem to be able to keep the date, and it has been

a cronjob for ntpdate that runs every minute? >:)

Hi !
I am quite new to DragonFly, but I would like to mention that I had the
same problem on normal FreeBSD. Then I tracked problem to hardware that was
not recognized by system. I inserted special SCC card (used for AX.25 -
Netham) into my computer and clock started going very fast. This card has
no driver under FreeBSD, and this caused the problem. I had the same
problem on one old computer with weird chipset, time was going very fast.
There I just had to set correct chipset for motherboard and everything was
fine...
I hope this will help a little.
Andy
P.S.: Another comment on SCC card, it had it's own "clock" (it had some
time crystals on it, I don't know how they are named in english) so maybe
that was problem.
