I purchased a TS-7300 without the onboard RTC.  I realized that I
really wanted one, so I purchased (a direct replacement, DS12887A) the
recommended M48T86PC1 module (TS-7300 Manual) and installed it.  My
soldering skills aren't the best but are usually adequate.  I noticed
in the schematic (after I installed the RTC) that the part is slightly
different there, a DS1687.

I now get errors trying to access the RTC, "Timed out waiting for time
change." so I know there is something wrong.  I did a search and saw
one other thread about this error but no resolution to it.

The other thread asked for this, I include it in case it is helpful.
:root# cat /proc/driver/rtc
rtc_time        : 55:110:55
rtc_date        : 2055-55-110
rtc_epoch       : 1900
alarm           : **:**:55
DST_enable      : yes
BCD             : yes
24hr            : yes
square_wave     : no
alarm_IRQ       : no
update_IRQ      : no
periodic_IRQ    : no
periodic_freq   : 0
batt_status     : okay
:root# 


I'm guessing I have one of the following problems, and hope the group
can help me pin it down.

1.  I can't solder as good as I thought I could.
2.  I read the wrong document first and should have ordered the DS1687
3.  I have the driver for the add on pc104 RTC in my kernel (stock
SDCard), not the on board RTC.
4.  I need to modify the driver, and the fix is...
5.  I need to install an older driver, I can get it...
