So here we are. I've found the problem, which is a wrong command passed to set the time. The delay before time is reset to its previous value is quite short, and should be raised I guess. But at least with the patch at [1], if you're relatively quick, the changes will be applied.
You can apply it if you like by downloading the patch and running: sudo patch /usr/share/system-tools-backends-2.0/scripts/Time/TimeDate.pm < [PATH TO THE FILE] I keep the bug open because of the delay issue. 1: http://git.gnome.org/cgit/system-tools-backends- clone/patch/?id=25f00b6ea6854602d988f2d387234ee370bf58e8 ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- [time-admin] Time cannot be set manually because it is reset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/475754 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
