Description Stefan Briesenick (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-03 12:59:23 UTC
you should have either:

  /dev/pcfclock[0-2]

or 

  /dev/pcfclock/[0-2]

major = 181, minor 0-2, chardev, mode = 444

Is there a way to hack this into the udev-rules?


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-01-03 19:55:03 UTC
are you saying no nodes are created or they are named incorrectly ?
Comment 2 Stefan Briesenick (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-03 20:01:25 UTC
no nodes are created.

btw: I checked it again and 'pcfdate' looks only for

/dev/pcfclock[0-2]

If I create the nodes with 'mknod', it works.
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-01-03 20:04:40 UTC
meaning it's a problem with the linux driver

please contact upstream about it, i have no way of actually testing this driver ;)

Unfortunately, the homepage tells: "Note: I no longer maintain this driver since I switched from Debian to OpenBSD."

there's a fixed driver in portage with udev-support (patch made by me).
It works!

KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge pcfclock-0.44-r1 ;-)

if it also works for you, I mark it stable,
