With Linux 2.6 kernel the chandev brain damage has gone. You find the
corresponding things in the /sys file system.
The structures for driving 390 znd z/series devices has changed considerably.

Reiserfs is more popular, because it is the default in SuSE. We've

The way you put this makes me think you set your hardware clock to local time.
This is the wrong approach with Linux (and z/OS actually).
If you set your hardware clock to GMT or UTC then use the correct timezone
