To check this, I had to recover the computer exhibiting this problem from - ahem - cold storage. First boot showed the timezone to be "America/El Salvador" again - I reset it to "Europe/Brussels".
I then proceeded to install 350+ updates (about 4 months worth) - I noticed that gnome-applets was also included, and the clock applet got upgraded to version 2.22.2, as I discovered later. This took the better part of last night. I shut down the PC this morning (after all updates were installed), and brought it back up in the evening - only to find the timezone to have been reset to "America/El Salvador". Still an issue, but I can live with it ;-) BTW: Probably not relevant, but my time servers have always been "be.pool.ntp.org", "europe.pool.ntp.org" and "ntp.ubuntu.com", in that order. -- Clock applet consistently displays different timezone after reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226216 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
