Also note I have never touch the BIOS, and I'm guessing the default is UTC.
This guess could be wrong it may default to the local time of the factory or simply is the time burned into the flash CMOS + the time offset upto now. It is up on you to a) set the time in BIOS before booting the system or use b) command `date' to set the system time if not already done and then use the command `hwclock' with option `--utc' (or the third line of /etc/adjtime set to UTC) and the option `--systohc' to write the clock back into the BIOS.
Sorry, was away. * I made sure the system was set to UTC (first in yast, then also use). I used yast->time and I also use kwclock --utc and then confirmed it really was set to UTC with: zcat /boot/initrd | cpio -i --to-stdout etc/sysconfig/clock * I went to the BIOS and corrected the clock to UTC (which coincidently is also my localtime, being in Portugal). Booted and time was correct. THEN I wanted to check if changes to system time were preserved. So I changed the system time as root (+10 minutes). Rebooted. Changes were lost. -- 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.
