No problem, Gentoo is smart enough to know about such things. Set your BIOS clock to local time and put CLOCK=local in /etc/conf.d/clock - or possibly in /etc/rc.conf, depending on your baselayout version. Hi, Could you expand ever so slightly on baselayout version? I have had this annoyance for a long time now (though I try and boot to doze as irregularly as possible), and want to finally understand how to fix the damn thing for good. So if I understand it I won't have to ask for instructions again! Cheers Antoine -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

He means that depending on what version of baselayout you are using you may have to either edit /etc/conf.d/clock or /etc/rc.conf - the exact one is left as an exercise to the reader :-) (Did you look for those files? Did you edit them? If I read /etc/rc.conf on my systems I see this: # Set CLOCK to UTC if your system clock is set to UTC (also known as # Greenwich Mean Time). If your clock is set to the local time, then set CLOCK # to local. This setting is used by the /etc/init.d/clock script. CLOCK=UTC So its not like this is not documented). -- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
