[gentoo-ppc-user] Hwclock error

2006-03-26 Thread Flisk .
Hi folks,
 Here where I work we received a G4 computer and I started to install a Gentoo 2006.0. The computer is a G4 2 CPU's 512MB of memory 2 HD, I started to install Gentoo 2006.0 from stage 1 and everything gone well. I installed with cpu flag as G4 and O2. 

 But when the computer restarted a problem appeared with hwclock, when I execute the hwclock an error appear. The error is something like: select() to /dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed out and the date in Linux stay 1970, the bios time is correctly because when I boot the Gento CD the hwclock work perfectly. I already recompiled the kernel with many options but nothing solve the problem. 

 I believe that the problem is with some kernel option that I forgot or some patch, because in the Gentoo CD the hwclock works perfectly. What kernel option or patch can be solve the problem? Hints?
 Best regards.
