Problem happens here in a brand new Ubuntu 8.04, with Gnome. I edited /etc/default/rcS as it is shown below and problem persists:
# # /etc/default/rcS # # Default settings for the scripts in /etc/rcS.d/ # # For information about these variables see the rcS(5) manual page. # # This file belongs to the "initscripts" package. TMPTIME=0 SULOGIN=no DELAYLOGIN=no UTC=no VERBOSE=no FSCKFIX=no === Also I tried symlinking or copying the timezone from /usr/share/zoneinfo to /etc/localtime, rebooting several times, but no success. The only thing that worked for me was setting the time by hand. I have no "UTC" option on the applet, looks like gnome removed the checkbox, as I verifed with some other users. -- clock applet shows UTC time not timezone time when NTP used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/15514 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a direct subscriber. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
