Hi.

If your computer is _really_ getting 5 minutes adrift of the GPS time, there is 
something pathological happening... You'd expect this sort of drift over the 
course of weeks or months.

I don't know either the hardware or the software, so I am speculating. However, 
it looks more as if there is a quarrel going on as to what the correct time is. 
Are you sure that you've disabled the OS time synchronisation hard enough?

How often is this happening? Did it _start_ happening after the clocks went 
forward, perhaps?

Kevin
