(Get the code!)
Dapper seems unable to read or set my RTC on an IBM/Lenovo X60 thinkpad.
The BIOS shows the hardware clock to be several hours different to the
Linux clock. When the network comes up, the screensaver appears to kick
in because the ntpdate moves the system clock to bring it up to date.
There are other symptoms:

select() to /dev/rtc to wait for clock tick timed out
