Evening all

I am running Xubuntu 24.04 which is all upto date and I installed week ago.

I am trying to set the Clock to use Internet time rather than manually set. When I look at the time setting in Settings, the time configuration is set to Manual, if I set it to Syncronise with Internet time" it fails and asks me to install NTP and offer me an "Install NTP support " button, if I click the button I get a further error "GDBus. Errorrg freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.packagekit was not provided by any.service files"

I did go a head and install NTP (ntp, ntpspec, python3-ntp" it removed, systemd-timesyncd) but still does not connect

I can not find a ntp.conf (should be in /etc/ntp.conf ) but there is nothing there.

Tried reinstalling NTP but got the following error:

mit@mit-ThinkPad-T530:~$ sudo apt install ntp
[sudo] password for mit:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
ntp is already the newest version (1:4.2.8p15+dfsg-2~1.2.2+dfsg1-4build2).

So how do I get the system clock to sync with NTP

Thanks in advance
