Clock wrong on AUR/kernel26rt 2.6.24.3_rt3-2

Hi,

I just built this kernel on an amd64 and all seems well so far except that the clock is off by two hours. On boot up I get a message:

Cannot access the hardware clock via any known method.

When I boot into the stock kernel the time is fine. I left all RTC settings as default when building the kernel (I think). Does anyone know where I can look for a solution?

Thanks,
Arthur

I take it back the stock kernel also shows the wrong time, but it seems to change with each reboot. This machine runs a triple boot. One xp and two archlinux. Timezone is set properly.

Any Ideas?

Windows XP changes the hardware clock directly. If you want to keep using XP, set

HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"

in rc.conf.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. HARDWARECLOCK is set to "localtime". I'm pretty sure that the problem has to do the way I configured the kernel but I don't know which modules are responsible for the clock and if they can be built as modules or if they need to be statically built. After checking several more times I find that booting into the stock kernel does produce the correct time.

Thanks,
Arthur

I have this problem too but I have it with the stock kernel... any solution?

EDIT: Oh yeah, 64bit version if it matters.
