Funny tho' that the hw clock still seems to get read at boot time, although the system complained last boot time, that (excerpt from /var/log/boot): Thu Jun 12 11:49:01 2008: Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method. Thu Jun 12 11:49:01 2008: Use the --debug option to see the details of our search for an access method. Thu Jun 12 11:49:01 2008: Setting the system clock.. Thu Jun 12 11:49:01 2008: Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method. Thu Jun 12 11:49:01 2008: Use the --debug option to see the details of our search for an access method. Thu Jun 12 11:49:01 2008: System Clock set. Local time: Thu Jun 12 09:48:57 UTC 2008. See? The clock is set up fine, as it seems. Ditto for the system time here. That's probably why it took so long until I realized the missing RTC device ... :) Whatever: I pulled the latest kernel sources, and at least they now seem to have RTC_DRV_PPC ... let's see ..
