|
|
I can't figure out how to make linux and windows set the same hardware clock.
Does Windows use UTC for hardware clock? I am getting tired of Windows messing my clock up every single time I boot into it to play WoW. _________________ We are Dyslexic of Borg. Fusistance is retile. Your ass will be laminated. |

i think you should set:
in /etc/conf.d/clock (or /etc/rc.conf) |

Also, make sure that your /etc/localtime symlink is pointing to the right timezone file: If you live on the east coast, it should look like this with ls -l:
Code: | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Nov 30 2003 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern | [/quote] |

Code: |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Apr 18 15:26 /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern
|
Code: | $ cat /etc/conf.d/clock | grep -i clock=
CLOCK="local"

you could put this in your:
/etc/conf.d/local.start
ntpdate <your_choice_ntp_server>
( I do that do adjust my clock everytime I boot, but it should solve your problem also) |
