Sone differences between our systems

 * Im using Rasclock 4.0, you are in 4.2=20

 * Im using RBPI3B+, you are in RBPI2

Not sure if these really matter but just in case Im mentioning.

>=20

huh. Are you saying the nxprtc driver is already built-in the kernel ?=20=

Why ? Shouldn=E2=80=99t that be just a driver what you can load on =
demand,
if users need ?

Yes, I do have under loader.conf nxprtc_load=3D=E2=80=9CYES=E2=80=9D. =
But still some questions=20
here:

* if I do not load the driver under loader.conf, nothing works, I cannot =
see the
clock or use it anyhow=20

* how can I make sure there is NO nxprtc within kernel ? Can I see the =
routines
function calls somehow, if i kldunlod the nxprtc driver ?

I do believe Im using the right thing after your commit. I can again =
double check that
