OK, sorry for not making myself clearer in the first place. Here's the output from date ; hwclock --show ... consigliori:~# date ; hwclock --show Fri Aug 28 10:16:29 IST 1998 Fri Aug 28 09:16:29 1998 -1.006290 seconds hwclock shows the correct time here in Ireland. I would like for date to display this time also, using GMT instead of IST. How do I do this? thanks, vinny
