Hi Martin,
Your test kernel eliminated the error message during kernel boot. But
hwclock still fails. :( I have attached 2 files:
rtcnew.log is the excerpt from syslog when your test kernel booted
strace.log is the strace output of hwclock --test --debug while
using your kernel

The /dev/rtc file does exist, as seen below:

Are you not using udev? It seems the device nodes are not correct
because the kernel created rtc0,
Martin,
No, I don't have udev. This is an old SGI Indy workstation, and the
Debian installation has been upgraded time and again starting from
Woody. :) I could not plug any new device into it anyway.
Is there an easy workaround, or do I have to install udev?
Thanks!

I think it is working now. I am keeping both rtc (10, 135), and rtc0
(254, 0), for now just in case I need to go back to an old kernel.
Thanks!

During boot, I saw this error in syslog:
drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device (rtc0)
Consequently hwclock --test --debug would fail.
Can you please test the following kernel:
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-r4k-ip22
Version: 2.6.26-15lenny3
Severity: important
During boot, I saw this error in syslog:

After switching back to an older kernel (2.6.18-5-r4k-ip22),
