[Bug 216059] New: G5 should use UTC instead of localtime
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=216059 Summary: G5 should use UTC instead of localtime Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 1 Platform: PowerPC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: yast2-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: olh@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com There is some flaky code in the powermac kernel that adjusts the system clock based on some timezone value in the nvram. MacOS 9 uses this timezone offset. This code runs only on 32bit, OS9 does not run on G5. A G5 has to run always with UTC instead of localtime. YaST has some code to force localtime on pmac. This should happen only on 32bit, not on 64bit. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

What does this example string return for you: { import "Arch"; y2internal ("mac: %1, arch: %2", Arch::board_mac (), Arch::architecture ()); } Or should I even disable changing to localtime, just like it is done e.g. for Arch::board_iseries? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

236 if (Timezone::windows_partition || Arch::board_mac ())
well, yes, I should adapt also this one
479 if (windows_partition || (Arch::board_mac () && Arch::ppc32 ())) It seems windows_partition is set to true somewhere, thats why it doesnt work in beta2.
Hm... and? If windows_partition is true, what can I do about this? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Isn't it possible to have windows partition on G5?
