Hi,

I have the same problem with my Tyan K8E Board. I've connected 2 WD raptor
to the onboard SATA ports (nForce 4, RAID0 md). I noticed that my server
hung up this night, after reboot and checking the logfiles I found the same
messages:

time.c: Lost 141 timer tick(s)! rip poll_idle+0x14/0x19)
time.c: Lost 127 timer tick(s)! rip poll_idle+0xa/0x19)
time.c: Lost 92 timer tick(s)! rip poll_idle+0x14/0x19)
time.c: Lost 64 timer tick(s)! rip poll_idle+0xa/0x19)

I dont use the onboard nFORCE4 NIC but the BROADCOM one. 

I ran ./trtc with the following results:

1141680789:835638: rtc 256 int 0 0 (=0)
1141680790:104663: rtc 464 int 269 0 (=269)

1141680798:105725: rtc 464 int 500 0 (=500)

I wonder if my server was frozen because of this error. If there will be no
fix soon, I think ist better to get a PCIexpress SATA2 card :(
