rtc.ko query

[Paras pradhan <pradhanparas@gmail.com>]

hi;

I am having a problem regarding rtc.ko. the warning message is as:

--
modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting rtc
(/lib/modules/2.6.11/kernel/drivers/char/rtc.ko): No such device

---

rtc.ko module is present but again i am getting this warning. is this
rtc related to real time clock and loading of it depends on the
hardware?.

when do i need rtc.ko?


Thanks
Paras.
