halfdome, michael, hippo

YEA IT WORKS! - THANKS HIPPO.

I can confirm that the DS1338 RTC clock added to the NEEK platform works.

I downloaded the latest kernel code (less than 2 weeks ago) and followed Hippo's instructions on the GPIO wiki page.

I made a clean kernel from the PTF that Hippo put on the wiki page, enabled the RTC per the page and it works!

I am porting our old kernel code that uses the open-cores I2C controller to our hardware boards, so in a few weeks I'll should have some feedback from that configuration.

Thanks again for your hard work Hippo.

Good Huntin'
