I report execution of scripts/ver_linux of the kernel source directory:

If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old version.
Compare to the current minimal requirements in Documentation/Changes.

(Well, there's an error because I used gcc 2.95.3: I compiled it form sources
with gcc-2.95.2).

The problem is with CMOS clock.

I have this problem: the kernel doesn't match the right clock time. I have to
set my CMOS clock with 2 hours first to view the right clock with: 'date',
but if I use date -u it response exactly. How ever when I shutdown machine
and I get power on after a bit, for example 15 minutes, I view the clock is
10 minutes back. A time I shuted-down machine I get power on and the clock
was very mistakes. About 12 hours back.
