Starting "muse" as root works fine. Starting "muse" as
normal user (here user name "rosted") fails:

bash-2.05b$ muse
no locale <muse_en_US>/</usr/local/share/muse/locale>
open projectfile: No such file or directory
NO Config File </home/rosted/.MusE>
WARNING: Cannot lock memory:: Operation not permitted
cannot set tick on /dev/rtc: Permission denied
precise timer not available
bash-2.05b$
bash-2.05b$ ls -all /dev/rtc
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 8 Dec 20 13:03
/dev/rtc -> misc/rtc
bash-2.05b$
bash-2.05b$ ls -all /dev/misc/rtc
crwx------ 1 rosted video 10, 135 Jan 1 1970

I use a standard installation of Mandrake Linux 9.2
(download edition), enterprise kernel on a Pentium 4 HT
3GHz / 800Mhz bus.

You need root access to access rtc, this can be
accomplished several ways

• being root
• installing the binary with setuid (possible in
  ./configure)
• using givertcaps (currently not working)

that muse fails if it can access rtc is intentional
