Hello, I had a problem (1.5.9) where readclock always returned '-q'. It turned out that /dev/mem was not set properly. one should 'mknod /dev/mem c 1 1'. I had it as a block device - never had a problem. Is there any documentation about how these should be set? I guess 'port' and 'kmem' should be character-devices too. Regards Eyal -- Regards Eyal

I have my /dev/mem device set up properly, and I still have this problem. I even tried making readclock setuid root, but still nothing. Hmmm.... -- Thomas V.
