[Bug 284602] Re: VMware Workstation 6.5 complains of no /dev/rtc

[Filipe Sousa]

I'm having the same problem as you. There's a few rtc modules configured
in the kernel:

$ grep CONFIG_RTC /boot/config-2.6.27-7-generic 
CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=y
# CONFIG_RTC_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_CMOS=y
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1305=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1307=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1374=m
# CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1511 is not set
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1553=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1672=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1742=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_FM3130=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_ISL1208=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M41T80=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M41T80_WDT=y
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M41T94=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M48T59=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M48T86=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_MAX6900=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_MAX6902=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_PCF8563=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_PCF8583=m
# CONFIG_RTC_DRV_R9701 is not set
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_RS5C348=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_RS5C372=m
# CONFIG_RTC_DRV_S35390A is not set
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_STK17TA8=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_TEST=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_V3020=m
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_X1205=m
CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS=y
CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE="rtc0"
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV=y
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV_UIE_EMUL=y
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_PROC=y
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_SYSFS=y
CONFIG_RTC_LIB=y

And there's /dev/rtc0 but not /dev/rtc
$ ls -l /dev/rtc*
crw-rw---- 1 root root 254, 0 2008-10-21 22:04 /dev/rtc0
