Comments in the file pointed to by Wabe say: # Set CLOCK to "UTC" if your Hardware Clock is set to UTC (also known as # Greenwich Mean Time). If that clock is set to the local time, then # set CLOCK to "local". Note that if you dual boot with Windows, then # you should set it to "local". MSWindows overwrites the hardware clock with the local time on shutdown. You can either define your Gentoo hardware clock as "local" in /etc/conf.d/hwclock, so that it is the same with MSWindows ... or set it as UTC and fix MSWindows to treat the hardware clock as a UTC setting too. Add a new registry key in MSWindows: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation] “RealTimeIsUniversal”=dword:00000001 -- Regards, Mick
