<2c on> New Zealand is about to change to their NZ Daylight time next weekend, this is earlier by a couple of weeks than last year. A bug report for this change was posted to Novell and to the clib group for this. I have a feeling that this whole Daylight savings start/stop thingy is going to be an issue that IT is going to have to handle on a more frequent basis. Now that countries are waking up to global warmimg and governments see that having more daylight time as a way they can say to their constituants they are doing something about it. Maybe we need to look at a more friendly way of implementing changes in OpenSUSE than patches. Coming from a NetWare background I remember a screen during install that allowed for the start and stop times to be changed from default times to allow for these sort of issues. </2c off> Jim On Tue, 2007-09-25 at 01:45 +0200, Carlos E.

Ah! X'-)
Maybe I understood them wrong, but I think the patch changes the time right away, instead of waiting for a certain day to change it, because nobody knows when that will be.
