I noticed that the current kernels on Ultra5 show the warning Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method. during both startup when setting clock and during shutdown when saving clock. After this line, a message tells that the clock was successfully set/saved and the clock is right - so the hwclock program is probably doing direct hardware access. There's no mention of RTC in dmesg. There is also no /dev/rtc but I do not know whether it has to exist (it does on my i386 PC). # # Real Time Clock # CONFIG_RTC_LIB=m CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=m # # RTC interfaces # CONFIG_RTC_INTF_SYSFS=y CONFIG_RTC_INTF_PROC=y CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV=y CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV_UIE_EMUL=y # CONFIG_RTC_DRV_TEST is not set And this is all that my .config has positive. It seems CONFIG_RTC is missing, but the option depends on !SPARC and so is not present on SPARC64. -- Meelis Roos (mroos@xxxxxxxx) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
