Then I corrected the time in YaST. The following reboot, the time was wrong of 7 hours (the difference between Italy and US). So I followed some suggestion given to me on IRC: - Set time with date - Sync hwclock to system time - Delete /etc/adjtime When the system is on, both the clocks are fine, but at the following reboot the problem is there again. I then found this post: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/install-boot-login/437966-s... where the proposed solution is the same as above, but with the addition of running mkinitrd at the end. It worked, however it is not clear to me why I should run mkinitrd to change the time, and I think it is a bug.
