** Description changed: After a fresh Gutsy install, I told the Date and Time applet to keep synchronized with time servers. It had been an hour off, so I expected this to set the time right, but it did not. I switched back to manual time, set the time correctly, and then switched back to

To reproduce on Jaunty I ran time-admin, hit "unlock", put in my password, then changed "Configuration" from "Manual" to "Keep synchronized with Internet servers" I can't do a screen cast right now (I rendered my Jaunty partition unbootable during unrelated jiggery pokery) but if it would be very

The reason I asked for a screencast is because I fail to see where this Synchronisation option is in the Time/Date settings. I thought it was got rid of as an option in Hardy. How are you changing this option? Quote Ryan : "I just reproduced the same bug in Jaunty Jackalope -- using "Synchronize w

What would that screencast be like? You set some wrong time then wait for hours and the clock won't be set to the correct time. Teej: you shouldn't run ntpdate manually but wait for Ubuntu to set the correct time. However I just tried to run ntpdate: $ ntpdate 30 Jun 21:35:55 ntpdate[10462]: no s

I just reproduced the same bug in Jaunty Jackalope -- using "Synchronize with time servers" does nothing. It tries to install NPT support, but afterwards it still insists that NTP support is not installed and always reverts to the "manual" setting. If the bug is incomplete, please tell me what sor

There is a threshold limit for how "wrong" the time can be ~1000 seconds I believe, before it doesn't update, although in Jaunty, I set my time back 5 hours, ran ntpdate and it updated perfectly fine. ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Synchronizing wi

This is still a problem as of Hardy alpha 3. The time server synchronization does not work, NTP support will not install, and the whole thing is just busted. (It says that it's installing and goes through the whole process, but when I go to enable time server sync, it insists that support has not b
