You have to change the line in /etc/default/rcS which states
the CMOS clock configuration, haven't you?
================
# Set GMT="-u" if your system clock is set to GMT, and GMT="" if not.
GMT="-u"
================
By the way, how can i set the time to meet to summer time
(DST) when it starts before the timezone defaults? The
system has to be synchronized to a ntp server.
