Subjectproblem with system clock
My dual Pentium III system is up and running linux smp-kernel 2.2.3. The

motherboard used is an ASUS P2B-DF. Trying to set the BIOS clock via
the /sbin/clock or the /sbin/hwclock
commands fail. As probable reason for this behaviour the syslog file is
full of entries like:

Sep 16 07:31:23 lxsrv2 kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 50 to 1
Sep 16 07:32:24 lxsrv2 kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 50 to 2
Sep 16 07:33:25 lxsrv2 kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 50 to 3
Sep 16 07:34:26 lxsrv2 kernel: set_rtc_mmss: can't update from 50 to 4

Also the entries in /proc/rtc are anomalous:

rtc_time : 12:36:05
rtc_date : 1997-01-01
rtc_epoch : 1900
alarm : **:**:57
DST_enable : no
BCD : yes
24hr : yes
square_wave : no
alarm_IRQ : no
update_IRQ : no
periodic_IRQ : no
periodic_freq : 1024
batt_status : okay

Has anybody had similar problems? Any help would be appreciated.

Please let me know, if you need further information.

/Herbert
