It is not compatible with what?
Here is ~$ lsmod | grep rtc
snd_rtctimer 3616 0
rtc_cmos 10848 0
rtc_core 19632 1 rtc_cmos
rtc_lib 3200 1 rtc_core
rtc 14620 1 snd_rtctimer
The "old" rtc is used by snd_rtctimer so that needs also to be replaced if
CONFIG_RTC will not be used. You may want the HPET in place of all of this?

Most everything seems to do sysctl. One can set it manually to see how it
works out. If it is OK, it gets put in the sysctl so one need not manually set
it again.

That gets done up front, hal bawks for some reason when starting. So for now,
I hdparm again.

I do not know why.
