On an ISA or Alpha machine, you can force hwclock to use the direct manipulation of the CMOS regis? ters without even trying /dev/rtc by specifying the --directisa option.

You may be right with a PowerPC but your reasoning will
not work on an x86 machine. Can we say that the original

It is. Please do read the util-linux docs at
/usr/share/doc/util-linux/README.Debian.hwclock.gz.
You need not have the module 'rtc' at all. So switch it
off and update your modules.conf

Agreed that 'hwclock' updates the hardware clock
while shutting down the m/c. This does not have
anything to do with the 'rtc' module and hwclock does
in no way use it. The 'rtc' module gives you access
to the real time clock (or hardware clock) built
into your computer.
Yup, it is a good thing to have rtc support if you do
data sampling work or on an SMP machine. Otherwise
it is not needed for a reasonably stable CMOS clock
that you normally have on your uniprocessor m/b.
It should not drift, that is you should have a stable
clock tick.
The hardware clock is synced with the system clock,
when you go down with an init 0/6. I think that the
system clock can adjust a drifting hardware clock.
How was the system clock set ? It was set from the
hardware clock when you booted up. See the script
hwclock.sh in /etc/rcS.h. So, is 'rtc' really
needed ? I would say no. Correct me if I am wrong,
tnx anyway.

Yes, it is. You need to compile 'rtc support' either into

Go ahead, you can switch it off. Usually a normal 'joe'
user does not require 'rtc support'. Do not forget to run
'update-modules' after your change it in your
/etc/modutils/aliases, so that it re-generates a new

char-major-10-135
I'm getting modprobe complaints about char-major-10-135 not being found. modules.conf defines an alias pointing to "rtc", is that for "real time clock"? Do I need kernel support for that? Or can I safely change the alias to "off"? I don't seem to miss anything in the current situation. TIA -- Philipp Lehman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Really? It's not at all obvious to me. I have lots and lots of
addresses, many with no public connection between them... I have no

you have between them.

Who said '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' did any of that?
(And, no, sendmail, as in the package from sendmail.org, doesn't add
resent headers. A client may. "echo [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ~/.forward"
won't add any resent headers with sendmail or postfix, and probably not
with exim either I don't know the qmail forward mechanism to know
whether or not it would... but of course, all of that is POINTLESS
because as you noted before, these are servers owned by RoadRunner and
they're running Windows-based MTA's, so how Unix MTA's behave is
irrelevant.)
Why would Debian, in an attempt to mail -you- send it to austin.rr.com
mail servers and address it to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' when they're not
doing that for anyone else? Hint: they're not.
The question would be, then, why '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' is forwarding
mail to you. That's something s/he would have to answer, and not
something debian-user could answer.
I didn't say you were stupid: you're just looking in the wrong place.

for what it's worth, that device is your "RTC", or, real time clock. the kernel is looking for rtc.o and isn't finding it... in the future, you can find the device for a particular major/minor number from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt. pete On Sun 17 Dec 00, 2:27 AM, Sven Burgener said... > Hello debs, > > How do I fix the following? > > modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-10-135 > > This appears when booting my potato box.

What special privileges does the Real Time Clock enjoy? For the longest time after I had compiled a 2.2.17 kernel, this error would appear in the log-files. I'd comment out the line in modules.conf and the errors would cease. I'd re-rerun update-modules (for whatever independent reason) and the line would re-appear un-commented in modules.conf and the error-messages would resume. It took me a while to figure out that it was re-appearing in modules.conf because there was a corresponding entry in /etc/modutils/arch/i386. I deleted the line from that file and the error messages ceased. What I'm curious about, though, is how the line ever came to be in the i386 file within /etc/modutils/arch. I always say no (not M) to that option when configuring the kernel, Jim

(It is not really a problem, because in spite of the message everything seems to work.)

Mouse : can't locate module char-major-10
Hello All, I am new to Linux and of course new to the Debian distribution. Recently I tried to install X on my box using the vga16 server. When started, the server immediately die with a message "Cannot open mouse : (no such device). Because X is a rather complex package, I tried to troubleshoot my mouse problem using gpm. The result was the same as with X, now the message is gpm : /dev/psmouse : No shuch device. Because psmouse is a symbolic link a also tried psaux and because it still didn't work, I even tried /dev/msmouse and /dev/inportbm (in fact this is a non-sense because my mouse is a PS-2 style). The problem is not the mouse hardware, because under Windows95, the same mouse on the same PC work ok. It is discovered as a PS/2 compatible mouse using interrupt 12. The computer is a Gateway 2000 P100. I think they use an Intel Alladin mother-board, but I am not completly sure. The mouse is a Microsoft "Mouse Port Compatible 2.0" I had also a look at /proc/devices and I didn't find any mouse device there. Also /proc/interrupts do not show any entry for interrupt 12. Finally I found that every time a started X or gpm, I got an entry in daemon.log : "modprobe : can't locate module char-major-10 So it seems that I need to load a module for my mouse. In /usr/lib/module_help/modules I found that modules should exist for psaux and mouse, however I didn't find any psaux.o or mouse.o on my system. Now I am stuck. I only see two possibilities : 1)I really need to load psaux.o and mouse.o; but where can I found those files? 2)The mouse driver is build in the kernel and for some reason the mouse is not detected at boot-up. How can I force the mouse configuration? I have really no idea which of those two possibilities is correct. As I am new to Linux maybe I made a stupid mistake. All the software was loaded from the stable subtree of the distribution. Kernel is 2.0.6. Any help would be appraciated.

Hi Boris -- Bruce suggested: > bruce>ls /dev |grep "10," Try instead: ls -l /dev | grep "10," Good luck, Susan Kleinmann

There is no driver for the device and kerneld tries to load > it. char-major-10 is handled by the drivers/char/misc.o (which will be installed in the kernel if: #if defined (CONFIG_BUSMOUSE) || defined(CONFIG_UMISC) || \ defined (CONFIG_PSMOUSE) || defined (CONFIG_MS_BUSMOUSE) || \ defined (CONFIG_ATIXL_BUSMOUSE) || defined(CONFIG_SOFT_WATCHDOG) || \ defined (CONFIG_PCWATCHDOG) || \ defined (CONFIG_APM) || defined (CONFIG_RTC) || defined (CONFIG_SUN_MOUSE) ). If none of those options are installed into the kernel, and it will be compiled as a module if one of the above options are build as modules. Therefore there is one alias needed: alias char-major-10 misc Each single device with major 10 will be requested from kerneld with: char-major-10-%d, therefore the following aliases are needed in addition: alias char-major-10-0 busmouse alias char-major-10-1 psaux alias char-major-10-2 msbusmouse alias char-major-10-4 amigamouse alias char-major-10-5 atarimouse alias char-major-10-6 ? alias char-major-10-130 wdt (or softdog) alias char-major-10-131 wdt alias char-major-10-134 apm_bios alias char-major-10-135 rtc (this is what i read from the source, it is neighter complete nor i am sure if it is correct).
