FWIW, I'm using the stock idepci floppies. The first time I booted the system and was put in base-config, it displayed the hardware clock, correct local time, and asked me whether this is GMT or not. I (truthfully) answered no, and proceeded with the installation, indicating that my local time zone is Helsinki, Europe (which means UTC+3 with DST). Somewhere along the instsallation, I screwed up, so I restarted with su -c /usr/sbin/base-config (... in fact I've screwed up multiple times, so I have gone through base-config half a dozen times this morning by now). Now, it displays a hardware clock time which is three hours off, but in the wrong direction. (11:00 when local time is 8:00) and it does this every time I restart base-config, and even though I've changed the "software time" with date -s. It seems to me that this case is incorrectly implemented in base-config -- it sets the hardware clock based on a reversed localtime offset when the hardware clock is set to local time. Sorry if this is already fixed in unstable or testing; I don't have the opportunity to check. /* era */ -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Kernel Version: Linux there.afraid.org 2.2.17 #1 Sun Jun 25 09:24:41 EST 2000 i586 unknown --------------------------------------- Received: (at 159541-done) by bugs.debian.org; 2 Dec 2003 04:25:03 +0000 >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Dec 01 22:17:01 2003 Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from kitenet.net [64.62.161.42] by master.debian.org with esmtp (Exim 3.35 1 (Debian)) id 1AR1y9-0000DL-00; Mon, 01 Dec 2003 22:17:01 -0600 Received: from dragon.kitenet.net (pm3naxs13-157.access.naxs.com [216.98.93.157]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (Client CN "Joey Hess", Issuer "Joey Hess" (verified OK)) by kitenet.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id F1F2817F7C for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tue, 2 Dec 2003 04:16:57 +0000 (GMT) Received: by dragon.kitenet.net (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 5D8BE6F3A7; Mon, 1 Dec 2003 22:27:49 -0500 (EST) Date: Mon, 1 Dec 2003 22:27:49 -0500 From: Joey Hess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: closing Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="RnlQjJ0d97Da+TV1" Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.4i Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.60-master.debian.org_2003_11_25-bugs.debian.org_2003_11_20 (1.212-2003-09-23-exp) on master.debian.org X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 required=4.0 tests=none autolearn=no version=2.60-master.debian.org_2003_11_25-bugs.debian.org_2003_11_20 X-Spam-Level: --RnlQjJ0d97Da+TV1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I am putting this bug report down to user error, since noone else has ever reported a problem like it with base-config. --=20 see shy jo --RnlQjJ0d97Da+TV1 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/zAa1d8HHehbQuO8RArlgAKDp1Hajdlu1Pv+Uuu14k5FxdT98egCfUFn8 WbdwYWTlG7TUzKAM18qKbyg= =wOxL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --RnlQjJ0d97Da+TV1-- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
