Clock is 3 hours off
Weird problem. All of a sudden about two weeks ago my clock started acting screwy. I got back from vacation (Hawaii) and changed my timezone back to Mountain Time (America/Denver). But I noticed the next day the clock was 3 hours BEHIND what it should have been. I checked the time zone again, and it was definitely set to America/Denver, so I manually changed the time to what it should be. 10 minutes later it was 3 hours off again. No matter what I do this seems to be the case. I've tried changing my timezone and changing it back again (I believe it is 3 hours slow in every time zone), manually changing the clock both in the applet and with date on the commandline, setting it to sync automatically with internet servers, changing the server it is set to sync to (currently libra.rice.edu), and everything else I can think of. For some reason it just keeps setting itself back 3 hours. It really seems to think that the time SHOULD be 11:00 AM when it's really 2:00 PM.
I vaguely recall some ubuntu update relating to daylight savings about 2 or 3 weeks ago, but I have no idea if that caused the problem, or even what it did. I've searched google/linux, this forum, and the official ubuntu forums, and since I haven't found anyone else having the same problem, I sort of doubt that the update was the problem.
PS. I'm running 7.10 on a Thinkpad T61.
