You have been subscribed to a public bug: Yesterday, I took all the latest updates for my 7.10 ubuntu installation. Frankly, I barely looked at what was offered, I just took them all and they appeared to have installed without incident.
Shortly thereafter I looked at the clock display on my screen and noticed that the time shown was five hours earlier than it should have been. My system is set the use the America/Chicago timezone, which, as of now, is 5 hours behind UTC. I am set for ntp: "Keep synchronized with Internet servers" and I've tried several different ones, without seeing any difference. I can get the right time to display in the GUI clock by checking the "Use UTC" checkbox. However, this isn't correct either, I'm NOT using UTC, I'm showing local time. UTC would be five hours ahead of what it shows now. And in the command line interface I see that the time is incorrect. ~$ date Sun Jun 1 08:40:44 CDT 2008 Local time is now 13:40, not 8:40. And of course all my file timestamps will be messed up. I don't know what to do to investigate any further. The update may or may not be relevant, but this was not happening earlier and I frequently had occasion to look at my timestamps. ** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- System Clock behavior change after installing latest 7.10 updates https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/236581 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
