Please check the hwclock configuration: ********** # cat /etc/conf.d/hwclock # Set CLOCK to "UTC" if your Hardware Clock is set to UTC (also known as # Greenwich Mean Time). If that clock is set to the local time, then # set CLOCK to "local". Note that if you dual boot with Windows, then # you should set it to "local". clock="UTC" ********** In other words: Set the BIOS clock to the local time. Set the following in the /etc/conf.d/hwclock file: clock="local" Also, ensure that MS Windows does the clock-changes between summer and winter time (if that exists where you live). -- Joost
