Joel, Thanks for doing this. It's a nuisance to have to fix this by hand. BTW, does anyone know why support for the powermac's clock hasn't been added to hwclock? That seems like the obvious solution. I mean, why not have just one clock setting program that works for all machines? I know that the powermac's clock is accessed via /dev/adb instead of /dev/rtc, but why should that matter?
