I've just installed VMWare 2.0.4 RC2 on LM8, with Windows98SE as the 
"guest" OS. While Windows seems to work OK, I get the following dialog 
box every time I start vmware:

"The high resolution timer is not currently available
(/dev/rtc: No such device).  It is possible that another virtual 
machine is using it.  Without the timer, Windows 98 will not keep time 
correctly and animated menus will appear sluggish.  However, other 
guest OSes will not be affected."

I'm very sure that I have no other vmware guest OS installed/running. I 
checked and /dev/rtc definitely exists, and I've even set permissions 
to include my user id.

So, what exactly is RTC? And what can I do about this? Thanks.
