Me: > No, it genuinely went from working to broken And actually, I think my recollection is wrong. I think it probably broke in 2.6.8-rt, and in mainline in either 2.6.9 or 2.6.10. Before that it worked fine, but we always used the system timer instead for RG because it seemed simpler (it was always 1000Hz then) and we stuck with that as the default and I guess rather abandoned the RTC option. Sorry for being so lax.
If it does work now, then of course, that's great. Chris
