Hello,
At shutdown, kernel 2.6.14-rc2 saves the wrong value in the hardware clock, since at next bootup I get 21 August 1987.
I have narrowed the range down to: 2.6.14-rc1 is good 2.6.14-rc1-git1 is bad.
Also, the 2.6.14-rcX does not power off the machine at shutdown. 2.6.13 did work fine.

Please let me know if you need more info, or want me to try a patch.
