hwclock is not working correctly on compaq 6510b, compaq presario c700

["Praveen A" <pravi.a@gmail.com>]

Hi,
I am not able to set clock on compaq 6510b and compaq presario c700
model laptops.

$ sudo hwclock
select() to /dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed out
The same error shows while booting up.

Fedora core 8 with 2.6.23 kernel was able to setup this correctly on 6510b.

Regards
Praveen
