Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22
Rather than re-opening bug #16345, opening a new bug (since was fixed for 26658 poster in 2.6.15...) - I left some comments in #16345 originally... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/16345 Exactly the same problem as #16345 with Feisty (fully updated), 2.6.22 kernel and a Dell Optiplex 745 desktop machine. hwclock will not work with the default /dev/rtc. It works with the --directisa option, or by replacing rtc with genrtc manually. I would suspect other Dell desktops may have the same issue? uname -r 2.6.22-14-386 lsmod | grep rtc rtc 13208 0 hwclock --show --debug hwclock from util-linux-ng 2.13 Using /dev interface to clock. Last drift adjustment done at 1211365653 seconds after 1969 Last calibration done at 1211365653 seconds after 1969 Hardware clock is on UTC time Assuming hardware clock is kept in UTC time. Waiting for clock tick... select() to /dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed out ...got clock tick sudo hwclock --show --directisa Wed 21 May 2008 12:18:28 BST -0.221688 seconds sudo modprobe -r rtc sudo modprobe genrtc lsmod | grep rtc genrtc 8808 0 hwclock --show Wed 21 May 2008 12:19:26 BST -0.063319 seconds Let me know if I can provide further diagnostics.
