thanx for the pointer, but that looks ok too:

[jarocki@king]/: grep UTC /etc/default/rcS
# Set UTC=yes if your system clock is set to UTC (GMT), and UTC=no if not.
UTC=no
[jarocki@king]/:

so, is the *hardware* clock actually set to UTC?
what output from date versus date -u?

I get:

andrew@basement:~/Desktop$ date
Fri Aug  4 09:32:23 PDT 2006
andrew@basement:~/Desktop$ date -u
Fri Aug  4 16:32:25 UTC 2006

yup, setting "UTC=yes" is what i needed.  thanx for you help.
