I can see that the error message can be improved after reading Ralfs reply, usually the reason is due to device file permissions, didn't know it could actually be because of a value limitation. I'll give it a look for improvements. Also, having rtc timing is as someone noted not a strict requirement, as it will fall back on the system timer, though on many systems this is set too low.
