So you are running an FC kernel on CentOS or RHEL? Or running FC anyway?

Thanks for the link, Andy. Didn't sound that similar in the beginning. I tried
to repro those network transfer issues and couldn't. But the keyboard repeat
stuff reported later sounds "promising". Seems there were really two problems
mixed in one report.

None. After reading the bug report I added report_lost_ticks to grub.conf and
rebooted, but still no errors in dmesg. Is my understanding correct that
report_lost_ticks enables reporting in dmesg or logs or is it something else?
Hm, according to Google it's exactly for this. Do I need to add something,
f.i. "report_lost_ticks=1" or so?
Hm, a few minutes later.
The problem wasn't very apparent over the last hours. After an ntpdate it
differed about 2 seconds within a few seconds and basically stayed that way,
no increase or at least no noticable increase. Maybe it jumps from time to
time to "achieve" a greater skew. However, now after rebooting with
report_lost_ticks there's almost no difference. Hm. And, wow, I changed to
runlevel 5 and the keyboard repeat problem is gone! I hope that really cures
it, great!
And another few minutes later. Time is still okay, but maybe it's too early
for that. But the keyboard repeat problem is back. Not as bad as before,
though. Weird.
