Because when I configure in UTC mode, the time wrong. In localtime the time is correct. My country is Peru (America/Lima GMT-5)
Then the localtime of the user space is not correct configured. First of all the kernelßs system clock is in UTC. Second the user space time (reported by e.f. the command date) is given by the file /etc/localtime which is a symbolic link to one of the zone file below /usr/share/zoneinfo/ which provides the correct teim offset to UTC ... in your case this is America/Lima with UTC-5 *and* it provides the rules used for setting e.g. Daylight Saving Time (DST) Third you can also use the environment variable TZ to override the /etc/localtime by any other zone file below /usr/share/zoneinfo/ E.g. werner@boole:~> TZ=UTC date <--- kernel's clock Fri Sep 27 06:33:44 UTC 2013 werner@boole:~> date <--- User space clock Fri Sep 27 08:33:48 CEST 2013 werner@boole:~> TZ=America/Lima date <--- Overwritten with PET Fri Sep 27 01:34:24 PET 2013 Compare this with http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Configuring_the_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.
