I don't remember too much about these old kernels. And, please notice, that - I am on an mpc8540 which is quite different from your mpc866 processor. - I am on the latest kernels which are also very different from the old ones regarding the RTC subsystem. Usually you have to configure the kernel using the right i2c interface for your processor (if supported). I am using the 'fsl-i2c' driver enabled by: I2C-support -> I2C Hardware Bus support -> MPC107/824x/85xx/52xx/86xx which will be: CONFIG_I2C_MPC=y Then, you might have to enable the (now deprecated) Misc I2C Chip Support -> Dallas DS1337 and ... Real Time Clock support which gives you: CONFIG_SENSORS_DS1337=y > I've seen there > is a cpm i2c interface for these processors (for a rpx board). the fsl-i2c might be the right place > However the > corresponding code (i2c-algo8xx) doesn't appear in the sources.

Could you give me some help about how it > works or what should I have to do? I would suggest - despite the current problems - to use a current kernel and check your mileage there. I don't want to ride dead horses anymore.
