Re: Problems setting time on iBook2



Same problem here on a titanium 550.

Same problem here. I'd also appreciate any hint on how to get rid of
this problem.

When I set the time in Mac OS X, and I boot Linux I get the following:

(taken from bootmessages:

System time was Thu Apr  4 15:27:37 UTC 2002
Setting the System Clock using the Hardware Clock as reference...
System Clock set. System local time is now Thu Apr  4 07:27:38 UTC 2002
...
<snip>
...
Setting the System Clock using the Hardware Clock as reference...
System Clock set. Local time: Thu Apr  4 09:27:52 CEST 2002

It doesn't matter if I include rtc in /etc/modules or not...

System configuration:

/etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Brussels

I have UTC=yes in /etc/default/rcS

When I reboot in Mac OS, the clock is totally screwed up.

The line "System time was Thu Apr  4 15:27:37 UTC 2002" seems to
indicate that the hardware clock is in UTC (it was 17:27 at that time)
