If you want to set your clock to UTC, add 6 hours to your local time (since you are in Central Time). Otherwise, set it to local time.
Thanks. This entire clock conversation got started when someone indicated that my being on local time was the cause of my fsck running every time I boot up. Somehow, I don't think advancing my clock 6 hours (I think that's how far behind GMT I am here in the Central zone) will fix that problem. It doesn't really seem logical that that is what is causing it, but maybe I'm wrong.
Of course it's 6 hours, I just told you that :-) (I cheated, I looked at the headers on your emails.) I am also dubious that this is a problem. If your BIOS clock (which, btw, *is* the CMOS clock) was set one way, but you configured your SuSE system the other way, then you would have consistent time errors -- eg. your system clock, the one that shows up in the taskbar, would be 6 hours fast (or slow). -- The best way to accelerate a computer running Windows is at 9.81 m/s² -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
