How? I have set my BIOS clock to local time mainly because I run a dual boot machine (Windows and Linux). For me, day light saving time changes occur seamlessly (Debian Testing, but I don't it matters which distro is being used). To the OP, as far as I know, practically it makes sense to set the BIOS to local time in the case where your machine also boots in to Windows. -- Please reply to this list only.
