Hi Istvan, I reset the time as per your instructions, and have booted the computer several times during the day. So far the computer seems to be presenting time and date ok, in gmt not local time. That is fine with me with all the traveling I do for work, so I will just leave it this way.
Hold on, there might be a problem with that. What is the output of the command "date" on your system? If it says something like this: ~> date Sat Nov 7 13:01:43 CET 2009 If the letters there say some local time (like CET above), but the time is UTC, then you do have a problem. Repeat the procedure taking attention to the --utc or --localtime as I said in my post. If you still get the wron time after that, make sure your timezone is properly configured in YaST. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
