Hi,

Just do a 'modprobe rtc' with kernel 2.6.10rc3 and got the message No such device
of course VMware or mplayer can not use /dev/rtc.

Things normal with 2.4.27 though. What did I miss or is this a known bug in 2.6.10rc3?

please help.

The RTC works fine.  You are doing something wrong.  Probably you didn't
compile the kernel with RTC support.

# ls /lib/modules/2.6.10-rc3p3_nopreempt/kernel/drivers/char/
dtlk.ko    hangcheck-timer.ko  lp.ko     ppdev.ko  tipar.ko
genrtc.ko  hw_random.ko        nvram.ko  rtc.ko    watchdog

clearly I got rtc.ko and genrtc.ko as well.
