Subject: [gentoo-user] No RTC kernel support needed?
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 18:43:40 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49bf44f10901291843y461f506cj9d7dd90a9138578b@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

One of my systems needed Real Time Clock -> PC-style 'CMOS' enabled in
the kernel to prevent a Hardware Clock error at startup and to make
the 'hwclock' command work.  Another of my systems doesn't have Real
Time Clock kernel support enabled at all, and yet 'hwclock' works
fine.  Does anyone know how that works?
