https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728583 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728583#c0 Summary: KDE clock off by 2 hours with each reboot Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: RC 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Applications AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: roland@logikalsolutions.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1 I have my clock set to auto-update via a server, yet, since the time change, and perhaps before, Every time I boot it is off by 2 hours. I did see that someone buggered the clock "settings" giving it its own timezone so one had UTC and another had America/Chicago, but come on! Shouldn't there only be ONE TIMEZONE SYSTEM WIDE? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Fresh install from "live" cd 2. Enable clock on toolbar 3. reboot Actual Results: Off by 2+ hours Expected Results: should ALWAYS sync with server This "time" thing screws up file timestamps, FTP transfers, email, and a rash of other things. -- 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.

Also is there a windows system installed on the same machine? Could be that the system clock is not UTC and your local timezone is 2 hours off UTC. -- 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.

I don't have Windows on any production machine. The problem appears to be your OpenSuSE code attempting to update the clock for daylight savings time even though the flag is set to synch with external time source. -- 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.

I installed SUSE 12.1 with KDE4 a couple of days ago (after using GNOME for a long time). Since then, every time I reboot the system the clock is off by a few hours. This morning the offset was 7 hours (minutes are OK). The clock was set to "manual", not "automatic update". I should add that on the gnome desktop there was never such a problem.

For some reason (i dont know why) in some cases the linux installation changes the bios time. It depends on the bios i guess, but not sure. -- 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.

My BIOS time was dead on. The only thing wrong was Linux and it was only on the day time was supposed to change. Even thought I told it to use an external source, it appears to have rolled back time twice. -- 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.

In 6 years of use i did not had an issue with time. Could you try my above steps and see if time gets 2 hours off? I was unable to reproduce this under openSUSE 12.1, KDE 4.7.2. -- 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.

This problem occurs on/around/during the week of a time change with ntp turned on. I have had to have my clock set to manual since this bug surfaced because I gained 2+ hours with each boot, as did others. I just reset it to ntp but it will be a while before I need to reboot to test again. -- 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.

Seems someone had to do something quite horrible to get the digital clock working using the local BIOS time. This setting most likely doesn't match what is coming via NTP. That would be my guess. I've given up trying to reset the Digital clock settings to be my current timezone. It keeps getting set back somehow. -- 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.
