i imagine your not running xine as root, so your user won't have 
permission to read from /dev/misc/rtc, you could as root
chmod 666 /dev/misc/rtc or you could add a group e.g. "rtc" and
chmod 660 /dev/misc/rtc then chgrp rtc /dev/misc/rtc
then just add the user your using.

as your using devfs you'll need to put this in your /etc/devfsd.conf to
keep
this set.

REGISTER	^misc/rtc	PERMISSIONS	root.rtc 0660
