@Karl: Please add a remark about CMOS clock and why it is better to use UTC in CMOS as the kernels reference system clock is within UTC. And also some notes how the user space does see localtime (due /etc/locatime as default and TZ as environment variable). Also add a warning about usgin localtime in CMOS as this requires a fragile chain of to be able to reset the kernels system clock to UTC in initrd to make sure that the file systems will touch with the correct timestamps.
@Jiri: Something seems to be missed in yast2-country as this bug happens.
If we can, I would suggest some kind of "warning / popup" when used uncheck "use UTC for hardware clock" to tell them it is unsafe and they should prefer running UTC for hardware clock (with reference to wiki or some documentation on how to configure Windows to work properly with UTC for hardware clock) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
