Don't know what went wrong as it seemed to work when I tried it the second time. I think I had set RTC as a module in kernel and not sure if it was loading properly.. Also I had not set my MB chipset in the kernel so everything was slow, so that could have been adding latency problems.. anyway, it is working now. I can't get as good latencies as you but then I am using a SBLive!

I think I will wait til it gets into the kernel to try it though. (knowing me this will mean I will probably try it out in the next few days!! ;) ) James
