One of my systems needed Real Time Clock -> PC-style 'CMOS' enabled in

Time Clock kernel support enabled at all, and yet 'hwclock' works
fine. Does anyone know how that works?
It might have something to do with the "High Resolution Timer Support"
option (in "Processor type and features".) Not sure though.
Thank you but none of my systems seem to have that enabled.
One thing I would try is examining the output of dmesg. Maybe something
relevant shows up.
