Hi The time shown by my computer didn't change to daylight saving last Saturday night. So I manually set it forward an hour (which has now forwarded UTC in the hardware clock by an hour, I guess).
I'm running Debian unstable. The hardware clock is set to UTC. /etc/timezone contains Australia/Sydney I'm following "16.1 Setting time, time zones and Daylight Saving" of the Debian System Administration manual. It says that I may have old timezone files; libc6 contains these files. dpkg -l libc6 reveals ii libc6 2.3.1-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone data I didn't notice any bug(s) relating to daylight saving on a quick perusal of the BTS. zdump -v Australia/Sydney|less reveals Australia/Sydney Sat Oct 26 16:00:00 2002 UTC = Sun Oct 27 03:00:00 2002 EST isdst=1 gmtoff=39600 Australia/Sydney Sat Mar 29 15:59:59 2003 UTC = Sun Mar 30 02:59:59 2003 EST isdst=1 gmtoff=39600 So, my computer should have changed to daylight saving but didn't. One of the reasons I noticed was that I downloaded and burnt knoppix 3.1 (a Debian based cdrom demo distribution; pretty awesome -> it recognised all of the machines I ran it on including a Toshiba laptop); knoppix set time forward 1 hour. Any ideas? Jonathan -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
