The weird thing is, when I click on the KDE clock and reset the time, it fills in the CORRECT time automatically. It's as if it knows the correct time, but won't display it. Very weird--this almost sounds like some kind of insidious virus or something. Anybody have any clues?
Two.
- Check the time with the command "date" on a console: if it shows the correct time, it is only kde that is wrong.
- Remember that the computer keep two clocks, and you have to update both. If you don't, the boot script will update wrongly the time next time you boot. You need to delete /etc/adjtime to avoid the auto adjustment each time you touch the clock manually (and use hwclock to update the cmos clock).
This is documented in the sdb and elsewhere.
Eh? Mind posting more info, or a link to it? I'm not sure what sdb is, or what you're getting at with the "two clocks" and all. I've been having a problem with the clock in KDE running slow -- as much as 10 minutes in a 30 minute period. I don't understand why deleting the scripts to keep the clocks in synch would be a "good thing"... *Confusled* Krikket
