Since I'm running ntp (and it doesn't matter if its daemon or "-q" from cron) the "11 minute mode" applies and I don't have to worry about syncing system to hardware "manually".
Automatic is nice.
If you have a permanent network connection and ntp running, yes :-)
I have had a permanent connection for 7-8 years by now, so I don't really remember, but afair ntpd can default to the local clock when there is no external signal. ntpd will know how much the local clock drifts, and can compensate for that such that time accuracy is actually quite good even during periods without a connection. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (4.0°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
