 Hi Benjamin,

  most of the development is now geared toward the 2.6 kernel. rtc
 drivers now have their own subsystem too. If you think
 you are willing to move to 2.6 I can be of some help.

  ARM is quite well supported under 2.6 and you
 would benefit of the rtc and hwmon subsystems, among
 many other features.

  I've done a lot of work with ARM board support packages on 
 5/6 arm system in the last months, together with the
 fine people of the nslu2-linux project.. so, if you need
 help, just drop a note.
