Time adj

Hello-

See if you have a time daemon of some sort running, this'll be xntpd or timed. If so, it's on by defautl and is trying to correct your system time by ticks and is not config'd to talk to a timeserver of any use to you. It failed to do the tick adj., not a hardware filure from what I can tell, you just may not care to sync to a timeserver and keep your own time, if so, turn off the daemon and set your date.
