Hello,
I'm running SuSE 7.1/PPC on kernel 2.4.8-benh (this happened with older kernels, too), and when I boot linux, the time is always way off (often even the minutes are wrong, not just the hour). So I fix the time in Linux, and everything is fine. But when I go back to MacOS, the clock is wrong again.
Anybody else have this problem? Know how to stop it?
Thanks.

Yes, I had this problem when moving back to the BST timezone recently. After resetting the clock in linux with 'date' and 'clock' and 'hwclock', several times and switching back to the Mac OS to find the time was wrong and resetting it and finding it wrong in Linux again, I settled on leaving the Mac clock at GMT and setting the hardware clock and system clock correctly in Linux. You can also check the Open Firmware clock which should correspond to the hardware clock settings in Linux. bemused.... Joss --
