[Bug 159960] Unable to open rtc device

Public bug reported:

Error:

[   32.978564] /build/buildd/linux-
source-2.6.22-2.6.22/drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device
(rtc0)

I suspect this to be the cause of VMware then spamming the event logs
unless the option "host.useFastClock" is set to false in
/etc/vmware/config

The messages when this option is enabled are...

rtc: lost some interrupts at 512H

and happen several thousand times a minute.

I'm using...

Linux whitestar 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 21:45:15 GMT 2007
x86_64 GNU/Linux

On an Asus P5K motherboard with a Core2Duo.
