I am also dubious that this is a problem. If your BIOS clock (which, btw, *is* the CMOS clock) was set one way, but you configured your SuSE system the other way, then you would have consistent time errors -- eg. your system clock, the one that shows up in the taskbar, would be 6 hours fast (or slow). -- The best way to accelerate a computer running Windows is at 9.81 m/s² -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
