    I'm using Debian inside Bochs. Bochs does not have support for setting the
    (Bochs' internal) hardware clock's time and is "upset" if you try to.
    Also, for some reason, Debian in Bochs things time time is going by at
    about three times the real speed.

    So, of course I'd like to fix this as simply as possible. I've looked at
    various ntp packages in Debian and it seems that they all want to set the
    hardware clock as well as the software clock... Does anyone know a way of
    getting one of the ntp packages to set the software clock without setting
    the hardware clock? Is there any way to compensate for this drift in the
    software clock only (maybe using adjtimex)?
