There no clock program for sparc :-(( I wrote one a year ago, by fixing the clock program from util-linux 2.5. Now util-linux is 2.7.1 (without the sparc fix) and the clock program for i386 is hwclock (don't remember from which package, and I don't have an immediate access to my sparc, sorry). I'm thinking about a solution to provide a clock program for sparc: 1/ either we can fix hwclock to support sparc 2/ or write a new one dedicated to sparc. The former solution is a hack, because the structure of /dev/rtc on sparc is not compatible with the one from intel. It needs a lot of #if...#endif. Moreover, there is a lot of ISA code not really useful on sparc ;-) I'd rather like the latter. I could then include it in my sparc-utils package. However, the elftoaout & piggyback programs already available in sparc-utils are not required to run a debian/sparc system, but the clock program is. So I could provide it as a separate binary package (same source either). Any comments? -- Eric Delaunay | "La guerre justifie l'existence des militaires. [EMAIL PROTECTED] | En les supprimant."
