Try using YaST and setting the timezone to Europe/London and indicating that the hardware clock is local time. Internally, Linux runs on UTC and doesn't use the hardware clock, except to set the time if you reboot, but these YaST settings should ensure the time is reported as BST.
There isn't a Europe/London setting under YaST. Just a Europe/Ireland setting. Looks like our capital city is now Dublin :) Tried it and it doesn't work. Still comes out as +0000 in the header.
If you want your clock set more accurately, try
# /usr/sbin/ntpdate ntp.cis.strath.ac.uk # /sbin/hwclock -w
I'll have a go at this but I don't suppose that this will change the +0000 value to +0100. Thank you -- Richard
