Description John Florian 2012-10-12 20:54:50 UTC

Description of problem:
I'm seeing many instances of this message when running journalctl right after booting my custom spin of F18 Live.  This spin consists of only Fedora-provided kernel modules.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-3.6.1-1.fc18.i686

How reproducible:
always

Additional info:
It appears to happen for nearly every module loaded.  To wit:

# dmesg  | grep 'Request for unknown module key' | wc -l
28
# lsmod  | wc -l
27

I can easily reproduce it on demand using a trivial, non-required "guinea pig" module:

# dmesg --clear
# rmmod serio_raw 
# dmesg
# modprobe serio_raw
# dmesg

full dmesg output please.

Not a bug.  My humble apologies for the noise and interruption.

The culprit was the RTC not being set correctly:
