I added some debug output to /etc/init/hwclock.conf While, according to dmesg, the kernel sets the system clock from the hardware clock:
$ sudo dmesg|grep "system clock" [ 2.257135] mt-rtc mt-rtc: setting system clock to 2015-12-14 02:00:36 UTC (1450058436) the system clock is already incorrect when hwclock.conf runs: + . /etc/default/rcS + UTC=yes + [ yes = yes ] + tz=--utc + [ = yes ] + echo XXXXXXXXXX Before XXXXXXXXXX Before + date Mon Dec 14 09:43:14 UTC 2015 + hwclock Mon Dec 14 02:00:41 2015 -0.881525 seconds + exec hwclock --systz --utc --noadjfile -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1524674 Title: Set Time & Date manually doesn't persist between reboots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1524674/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
