[Bug 1317945] [NEW] Clock indicator on panel is updating infreqently

 

Public bug reported:

Recently I have noticed that my clock is frozen.  Clicking on the frozen
time in the indicator shows the current time in the dropdown (below the
calendar), however the displayed clock in the panel is never updated.

Rebooting does not resolve the problem, but gives me an updated time
displayed on the panel.

It is probably unrelated, however earlier this week I did notice some
skew (that I have never seen before), confirmed it was the system clock
on the command line and ran an ntpdate-debian to update. I dismissed the
skew as the result of suspending too many times without reboot during
which I had also toggled different CPU schedulers and frequency to
influence system performance.

ntpdate-debian updated the time.  Likely a coincidence, but I have been
noticing this clock issue since I had this problem.
