Hello SuSe people,
Really strange.
Every time I reboot my computrer it loses 4 hours exactly. (I shut down every night and restart the folowing day) I can set the time exactly using an NTP server Running 10.3 64 bit and KDE3.
To test this, tonight wiith the exact time correct. I shut down and rebooted 3 times. Each time I rebooted it lost exactly 4 hours. A total of 12 hours. First time, 4 hours, Second time an additional 4 hours or eight hours total. Third time an additional 4 hours or a total of 12 hours.
After every corrrective reset I do an hwclock --systohc
Anyone, any ideas on what could be happening here?

Bob,
Is the box a dual-boot box with windows installed? Are you GMT+-4 in your timezone?
Yes and yes (EDT) but I haven't booted windoze in over a year. See my reply to Ingolf.

Do you use openSUSE 11.O and updated ? When I install openSUSE 11.0 the first time from DVD , it is so, time is wrong after every reboot. If I have a network with it, I would update something, it goes OK then. But if I dont update, it would still be that, everytime I reinstall with DVD. : ) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
