Might want to open this one back up. Although I am new to Ubuntu.. I just installed it on my PC 2 weeks ago. This is the last of the few "bugs" I have yet to work out. I have XP, Vista and Ubuntu 10.10 all installed to totally separate drives & partitions. Both Windows installs have no problem synching time off the bios but for some reason whenever I boot in Ubuntu my clock is always of -8 or -9 hours.
I finally managed to get a non-default internet time server set up and it will now sync OK.. but I'm on dial-up and it would be really nice if the clock would just stay set.. period. If there is any additional information I can furnish you please don't hesitate. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 with all of the latest updates/kernels/etc. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207902 Title: On time set via gnome-panel, "/sbin/hwclock returned 256" -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
