If not present then create if, e.g.

echo -e "0.0 0 0.0\n0\nUTC" > /etc/adjtime

ERROR: the file contains UTC even if the user has requested LOCAL. The file should be ignored as USE_ADJUST="no", but nevertheless, it is incorrect. -- 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.

Line 2: 1 number: Resulting number of seconds since 1969 UTC of most recent calibration. Zero if there has been no cali- bration yet or it is known that any previous calibration is moot (for example, because the Hardware Clock has been found, since that calibration, not to contain a valid time). This is a decimal integer. Line 3: "UTC" or "LOCAL". Tells whether the Hardware Clock is set to Coordinated Universal Time or local time. You can always override this value with options on the hwclock command line. there I'd like to see your *old* /etc/adjtime, the *not* working one. -- 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.

USE_ADJUST="no" does not influence the usage of the last line of /etc/adjtime

Ok. But the problem is that I installed specifying 12.2 that the CMOS clock uses local time, but the adjtime says UTC. This is an error and may cause problems in some software pieces (unverified by me). -- 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.
