 |
|
| Hi all. I am dual booting between Windows and Gentoo. Whenever I boot up Windows after working in Gentoo, my time is off by quite a bit. Any ideas on how I can fix this? I am running a NTP server and the time is correct in Gentoo. Thanks in advance. |

There have been a million topics like this, but a guess there getting bumped down on the search list. In /etc/rc.conf, change CLOCK="UTC" to
This is neccessary because windows stores the time in the hardware as localtime and linux doesn't (by default). |

or try to changing UTC to GMT if your windows uses GMT  and check for that option in your kernel make menuconfig>Character Devices>Enchanged real time..... |

Thank you. I did do a search, but I can never seem to create a good search string to find what I need. |

This seems to have remedied the problem, almost. My time is still off by about 25 minutes. Any suggestions? |
