Bug Description
I have a ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard with nvidia nForce2 chipset.
The symptom I had was a huge clock drift (many minutes for one hour) and VLC video streaming (my ISP free.fr distributes TV with VLC on their neitwork) worked only a few minutes before image freezes with messages like "main warning: late picture skipped (2732961)
main warning: computed PTS is out of range (2596547), clearing out
main warning: timing screwed, stopping resampling
main warning: PTS is out of range (2636228), dropping buffer
main warning: output PTS is out of range (2617423), clearing out
main warning: PTS is out of range (2612287), dropping buffer
main warning: PTS is out of range (2588313), dropping buffer

ts warning: discontinuity received 0x9 instead of 0xf (pid=69)
ts warning: discontinuity received 0xe instead of 0xb (pid=70)

main warning: vout synchro warning: pts != current_date (-2759978)

see another post of that problem here (sorry, in french) : http://
I found a workaround by appending "noapic nolapic" to the kernel boot options.

I forgot to mention that the problem appears on dapper and edgy.
