Which desktop? If KDE, right click on the clock, then left on "show
timezone" and make sure local time is selected. Given what follows, I
think it probably is, but just make sure. If Gnome, I can't help you
with this selection, but I can't imagine it would be much different.

In the Yast sysconfig editor, verify directly that
system/environment/clock/HWCLOCK is set to -u. If not, change it, click
"finish" and exit Yast, which should correct the problem.
