Re: [opensuse] DST with dual boot

Quoting Josef Wolf <jw@raven.inka.de>:

Hello,

In good old unix tradition, I always set the HW clock to UTC and let zoneinfo do the rest.

Now I need to install a dual-boot box (win-XP). Do I really need to fall back to the (IMHO) braindead method to set the HW clock to local time? Or is there some clever way to get win-xp to accept HW clock set to UTC?

Yes, set the WinXP timezone to UTC/GMT and remember what the current offset is. I find this satisfactory for the small amount I boot into WinXP. After buying CrossOver Office, that is almost zero.
