If your clock quit setting and you've changed nothing, it's possible the
battery may be failing.  Assuming you have RTC support in the kernel (most
stock kernels do and it's generally a good idea,) type "cat
/proc/drivers/rtc."  It will give the time that is in the RTC and will
show the battery status plus a lot of other info.
