Could some one explain why there is a 5 hour difference between my system clock and the clock in opensuse? Opensuse is running 5 hours behind. I have the time zone set to Central. I don't quite understand. I downloaded the time zone patch today when I reinstalled the os. I'm puzzled.

In YaST Control center -- System -- Date and Time Field "Hardware Clock Set To" select "Local" if you have windows on the same computer, as windows use local time, not UTC, if not than leave it on "UTC", but use button Change to set your clock and it will display proper time.
It wouldn't be bad idea to read left pane in the same window with tile "Time Zone and Clock Settings".
BTW, where you have found "the time zone patch"?
When I updated my machine I noticed that it came down then. I am not running dual systems. If I understand you correctly leave the system hardware clock set to UTC and set the correct time for the OS. I'll do that right now. I really appreciate the help everyone has offered. It makes my transition to Linux a bit easier. -- Dwain Alford P.O.
