Yep, I'm afraid Philipp's right. The symlink to /usr/share/zoneinfo sounded promising, but I replaced the symlink in /etc with the file that it was linking to, and the result is the same. It may be related to the fact that hwclock doesn't work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11:07 ~ > /sbin/hwclock --debug hwclock 2.4c/util-linux-2.11n hwclock: Open of /dev/misc/rtc failed, errno=2: No such file or directory. No usable clock interface found. Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11:07 ~ > But if that's really true, then how can the clock be set at all? So what I think I'm getting out of this is that it's probably worth doing at least a little digging to find out what the deal is. If I find any significant results, I'll post to the list.
