The kernel does not do anything to the clock, it just reads the hwclock. When you reboot/poweroff, hwclock writes the date to the RTC, so maybe hwclock messes things up? Could be possible, if you see how hwclock oopses on a mac... I wouldn't notice, since I run ntp on all machines. But you could play with it by running hwclock --systorc and --hctosys a few times. I built a new amiga image: http://people.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/linux-image/linux-image-2.6.15-1-amiga_2.6.15-6.1_m68k.deb cirrusfb is now built in, I tried to activate cyberfb, virgefb, and retinaz3fb as well, but the all failed due to missing includes: #include <video/fbcon.h> Also atafb is trying to include fbcon.h, which seems to have disappeared. None of those drivers (plus a few more) have been updated for 2.6 yet? Looks like quite a bit of work to me. Anyhow, for testing cirrusfb the new image might be suitable. 2.6.15-6 is running rockstable on my Amiga so far, the problems with the wd33c93 SCSI driver seem to be fixed, keyboard works, yes, including special characters, but I should configure the keymap to match my actual keyboard. Speaking of keyboards, if anybody has a spare A2000 keyboard, I'd be interested. My old keyboard, which already had a few no longer working keys, fell down and now really lost some keys. I had a replacement keyboard from an A500, which works, but some keys are "sticky". Before somebody is throwing away a keyboard, I'd be happy to take it. Or maybe I should try to get Lyra working again in Linux... Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
