Today I had the same phenomenon as reported by "mannheim": The timezone
changed from "CEST" to "CET", but the time itself did not change. The
result was an incorrect time +1h in the future.
The system (7.04) was shutdown during the transition point (no suspend, no
hibernate).
I have ntp, ntpdate and tzdata installed, and ntpd is launched at startup,
using:
server ntp.ubuntu.com minpoll 12 maxpoll 17
$ zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007
/etc/localtime Sun Mar 25 00:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 25 01:59:59 2007 CET

On a friend's machine, also running 7.04, the transition worked fine. However,
there are at least two differences:
- His machine is running 24/7
- ntpd is not running, ntp is not installed. ntpdate and tzdata are installed.
