Now onto the questions. The /dev/rtc does not exists it is however listed as a character device as you can see in the results from cat /proc/devices (it is 254) cat /proc/devices Character devices: 1 mem 4 /dev/vc/0 4 tty 4 ttyS 5 /dev/tty 5 /dev/console 5 /dev/ptmx 7 vcs 10 misc 13 input 14 sound 21 sg 29 fb 116 alsa 128 ptm 136 pts 180 usb 189 usb_device 195 nvidia 202 cpu/msr 203 cpu/cpuid 248 firewire 249 usb_endpoint 250 hidraw 251 usbmon 252 bsg 253 pcmcia 254 rtc Block devices: 1 ramdisk 8 sd 9 md 11 sr 65 sd 66 sd 67 sd 68 sd 69 sd 70 sd 71 sd 128 sd 129 sd 130 sd 131 sd 132 sd 133 sd 134 sd 135 sd 253 device-mapper 254 mdp Another mystery is that when I run timeconfig it shows that "System uses UTC" is unchecked, though system-config-date shows the option as checked/enabled. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
