For both configs, can you run:
cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource
and:
cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource

Then send back the output?


Sure. For 486:

% cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource
pit jiffies
% cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
pit


For Geode (clock is running too fast):
% cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource
jiffies
% cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
jiffies


dmesg says for Geode:

:
TSC: Unable to calibrate against PIT
TSC: No reference (HPET/PMTIMER) available
Marking TSC unstable due to could not calculate TSC khz
