Ben,

First things first, you may want to check your system clock:

That's not a good thing.  :-)

As far of the rest of your problems, however, I haven't a clue.  I've been 
using a 2.6 system for quite some time now, and I have had no kernel 
problems with it, or problems with any software running on it, save for the 
nVidia binary drivers (though, that's not the kernel's fault).
