Switching to UTC caused that date message to go away! So you must have the setting that said your bios clock was set to utc, yet before it was actually set to localtime. They only need to agree. Now, the only thing that comes out is -

So if that date problem is cleared up, why do I still get an fsck every time I boot? It is an automatic check to make sure no filesystem needs more extensive checking. Here is a list of all of the rpmnews on my system.

You should really go through every one of those files and either replace the orig with the newer one, or at least deal with all those config files. I see /etc/localtime is one of those files. That was probably your time problem's root. If you are going to update your install, you need to finish it by checking and resolving these config files. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.2 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
