Just booted, and these are the outputs on my pc:
$ cat /etc/timezone
Europe/Brussels
$ sudo zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007
/etc/localtime  Sun Mar 25 00:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 25 01:59:59 2007 CET 
isdst=0 gmtoff=3600
/etc/localtime  Sun Mar 25 01:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 25 03:00:00 2007 CEST 
isdst=1 gmtoff=7200
/etc/localtime  Sun Oct 28 00:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Oct 28 02:59:59 2007 CEST 
isdst=1 gmtoff=7200
/etc/localtime  Sun Oct 28 01:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Oct 28 02:00:00 2007 CET 
isdst=0 gmtoff=3600

Clock is still wrong. This is the output of the date command (at real local 
time 20:25:52)
$ date
zo okt 28 21:25:52 CET 2007

I have a few questions: is ntp working? If so, why does my pc not have
the right local time? Apart from ntp time sync, does ubuntu (or linux
for that matter) have a built in mechanism for switching back an forth
between summer en winter time? I can remember from my Windows days that
the first time it booted after such a change it would say something like
"I have adjusted local time to winter time, please check if local time
is OK". I did not get any message like that from ubuntu. Although the
Windows message sounded a bit "unsure", it did it very good, even
without ntp.

Please let me know if i can do anything more to debug this.
