TZ=CEST didn't have any effect, and /etc/timezone contains a 
line "Europe/Oslo" which is correct.

I have found the problem now by comparing the strace output from the date 
command running as root and as tmac. The problem was that only root had read 
access to the file /etc/localtime. After enabling read access for others it 
now works correctly also for 'tmac'.

I am not exactly sure, but the problem may have started when I tried to adjust 
the time using KDE.

Many thanks for your kind assistance, Matthias!

Best regards,
TMS
