Sorry, nothing suspicous in the logs (syslog, boot, debug, dmesg, kern.log,
messages).
$ lsmod | grep -i rtc
genrtc 8180 1
genrtc? Indeed, /var/log/dmesg reads "Generic RTC Driver v1.07".
$ modprobe rtc
FATAL: Error inserting rtc
(/lib/modules/2.6.10-bs2/kernel/drivers/char/rtc.ko): No such device
Huh? I stopped chronyd, removed genrtc, inserted rtc and restarted chronyd
(with rtcfile enabled). Youhou! No more freezes with
$ lsmod | grep -i rtc
rtc 10424 1
Okay, so how to make sure rtc is inserted instead of genrtc? Not really
chrony's role, but its default config file is not "safe". A debconf
information or question could be useful here.
