[Bug 517959] New: Clock shows wrong time
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=517959 Summary: Clock shows wrong time Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: fdan52@comcast.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.4) Gecko/2008103100 SUSE/3.0.4-4.7 Firefox/3.0.4 I have installed 11.1 a number of times. I always select local time (Los Angeles no UTC) during the install. The first time or two reboot, the time is right. Then the the time consistantly falls back 6 hours. the change also effects CMOS system clock requiring me to go into the system setup to correct. This does not resolve the problem. Nor does setting the time from the GUI. The battery is new, so that can't be the problem.

I will keep mucking with the priorities on occasion until I see some positive corrective action.
I guess you know that Bugzilla accounts can be blocked. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Ok. The problem is... for openSuSE 12.2 anyway...the /etc/adjtime file was set wrong. It contained:
0.0 0 0.0 0 UTC
where the last value was supposed to be LOCAL ... from our preferences in the installation.
I confirm that. Also, the variable HWCLOCK in /etc/sysconfig/clock does not exist. However, there is another setting, USE_ADJUST="no"; it appears that (in 12.2) adjtime should not be used at all when time is set to localtime, so the contents should be irrelevant. In this case, you should not have the shifting clock problem. I suggest that you verify in the bios the clock before booting 12.2, and if in the subsequent boot the clock is off by X hours, enter a new bugzilla for 12.2, as the problem is different than for the 11.1 reported here. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
