I've compiled and configured MPlayer 1.0pre5-3.3.4 to use Linux RTC, under SuSE 9.0 and it worked OK, but now I've installed SuSE 9.2 and the same mplayer version print this message: --- cut --- Linux RTC init error in ioctl (rtc_irqp_set 1024): Inappropriate ioctl for device Try adding "echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq" to your system startup scripts. Using usleep() timing --- end cut --- max-user-freq has been configured early. fluff@brain:~/ctorrent-1.3.2> cat /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq 1024 So, i think it's ok. Looking into kernel's documentation directory i found a RTC test program, and it fails in the same way (even running it as root user): brain:~ # uname -a Linux brain 2.6.8-24.5-default #1 Wed Nov 17 11:10:06 UTC 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux brain:~ # ./rtctest RTC Driver Test Example. ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device brain:~ # The question is, How can I use RTC under SuSE 9.2? Should I customize(patch/change) my kernel? Is there a known workarround ? Regards -- "Don't worry if it doesn't work right.
