SNI used two different RTC chips (ds126 and mc146818) and it's no big deal support them in just one kernel with the current framework 2. One line of SNI machines (a20r) can't use the cp0 counter, so it's not a really good idea to calibrate it Thomas. -- Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessary a good idea. [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]
