Could be. I thought that was the old situation, but assumed now that timezone is an userland thing, it returned the HW clock. But I assume it needs some form of timezone too for certain protocols. So who maintains the difference between hardware clock and UTC for the kernel's benefit then, and where is that maintained? _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
