My clock is supposedly set to UTC. When I originally installed, it
wasn't, and there was no documentation for changing it, but I figured
that I needed to add a -u to the appropriate init script. Here then
is /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh:
GMT=-u
#
# Set and adjust the CMOS clock.
#
if [ ! -f /etc/adjtime ]
then
echo "0.0 0 0.0" > /etc/adjtime
fi
if [ -x /sbin/hwclock ]
then
[ "$GMT" = "-u" ] && GMT="--utc"
hwclock --adjust $GMT
hwclock --hctosys $GMT
else
[ "$GMT" = "--utc" ] && GMT="-u"
clock -a $GMT
fi
#
# Now that /usr/lib/zoneinfo should be available,
# announce the local time.
#
if [ "$VERBOSE" != no ]
then
echo
echo "Local time: `date`"
echo
fi

Cool; my uncle lives just outside Sioux Falls and works there. He
also is a volunteer chairman for the Minn-Kota sale in the Arena
each year, if you've ever been to it.
