Here is the procedure I used last spring (you'll need to set the TIMEZONE according to your location: (1) Sync. (perhaps not required if portage is fairly up to date) (2) emerge timezone-data (should be >= 2006p) (3) set TIMEZONE="Canada/Newfoundland" in /etc/conf.d/clock (adjust for your local time zone). (4) rm /etc/localtime && cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Canada/Newfoundland /etc/localtime (adjust for your local time zone). (5) Check: zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007. For timezone-data = 2007c it shows: /etc/localtime Sun Mar 11 03:30:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 00:00:59 2007 NST isdst=0 /etc/localtime Sun Mar 11 03:31:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:01:00 2007 NDT isdst=1 /etc/localtime Sun Nov 4 02:30:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 00:00:59 2007 NDT isdst=1 /etc/localtime Sun Nov 4 02:31:00 2007 UTC = Sat Nov 3 23:01:00 2007 NST isdst=0 There was a thread on this last March: [gentoo-user] Problems after DST change Hope this helps, Roger -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
