Hello list,

When installing a Windows XP guest machine in
vmware, I get the warning

host high-resolution timer device is no currently
available (/dev/rtc).

The actual message is a longer but this is the 
essence of it. My system does not have this device. 
I am running devfsd but I am not very familiar with it.
Shouldn't it create /dev/rtc by default?

The vmware web site says that 

    * The real-time clock function must be compiled into your Linux kernel.
    * VMware Workstation for Linux requires that the parallel port PC-style hardware 
option (CONFIG_PARPORT_PC) be built and loaded as a kernel module (that is, it must be 
set to m when the kernel is compiled). 

I did the second configuration but I do not know exactly how to
do the first (real-time clock function).

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
