Time, time, time
 
I've looked at every thread and tried everything, set NTP with Yast, /usr/sbin/ntpdate and closest server numbers and Suse still gets the time wrong. I'm running 3 Linux OS's on 2 drives. The other two hold time fine, but not Suse. I use UTC when I reset the time. I've run out of ideas. Any adice would be appreciated greatly.

what's wrong about the time, is it the time zone or the time is drifting

The time is drifting. Gains about a half hour in a hour turned off. Right now I'm trying "Global PST8PDT, UTC". I tried ETC GMT-7 and that didn't work. Tricky. When I'm booted into Suse it hold the time fine. I use Suse almost exclusively but when I shut it down the time screws up.

I'm still fighting this time issue. I've set is every way there is set it. NTP, local severs numbers, everything, except one thing obiviously.

set the time , delete /etc/adjtime, reboot

Thanks for the replies. I fixed it. I looked at my BIOS before but misread it,duh. Looked again and it was off an hour +. It's been holding OK for a couple of hours now, booting in and out of other OS's and shutting down, so it must be OK!


All times are GMT -5. The time now is 08:18 AM.
