[gentoo-user] Time one hour off every time I start
We just had our bi-yearly annoying time change where I live. Each time I boot up my system, the system time has returned to what it was before, that is to say, it's exactly one hour early. I do an ntpdate and it's corrected. I reboot or power down, come back up, and it's set back to the wrong time again. Hmm, what am I missing? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

In the bios, set your system clock to UTC time, then tell Linux about it, in /etc/conf.d/clock: CLOCK=UTC CLOCK_SYSTOHC=yes HTH...

In the bios, set your system clock to UTC time, then tell Linux about it, in /etc/conf.d/clock: just a little addition here: No need to go to the bios, you can use hwclock. Be sure to check it's man page and be careful that /etc/ adjtime isn't set to some silly value afterwards (we've just discussed that here). OTO, that is not an issue when setting the clock in the BIOS. HWH -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Only problem with UTC in bios is for those of us who (have to!) keep MonopolSoft's wunnerful(Hic!) system on the same computer. sigh. rgh.

No problem, Gentoo is smart enough to know about such things. Set your BIOS clock to local time and put CLOCK=local in /etc/conf.d/clock - or possibly in /etc/rc.conf, depending on your baselayout version. -- Neil Bothwick A snooze button is a poor substitute for no alarm clock at all. pgpiNKRupjMmK.pgp Description: PGP signature
