I'm still seeing this on a laptop running Jaunty. I have for a long
time observed that my time zone gets reset to Europe/Mariehamn. The
speculation that this might depend on access to wireless during boot
might be significant sounds like it could fit my situation, too,
although I have not been
Oh, my /etc/timezone says Europe/Helsinki so Mariehamn is not terribly
far off.

Furthermore, I was able to reproduce this in a Virtualbox Jaunty Live CD
instance, even without a reboot. I set up my timezone to
Europe/Helsinki, configured NTP synchronization, closed the Time and
Date applet, and reopened it. Presto, Europe/Mariehamn.

Actually, even without NTP in the equation at all, I see the same here.
In a Jaunty Live CD instance, open Preferences Time and Date and
configure the location to Europe/Helsinki. Close Time and Date and
observe that /etc/timezone has been correctly updated. Still, reopening
Time and Date
... and no matter how many times I try to correct it, it's reset back to
Europe/Mariehamn in the Time and Date applet next time I open it (sorry,
this is in System Administration, not System Preferences). This is
consistent with what I have been observing since I think at least 8.04.
Reiterate,
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519823 has been marked as
fixed, but seems to be about the same problem. Without further
analysis, my guess is that the fix basically works but that there are
still glitches for individuall locations, one of which apparently is
Helsinki.

My bad, my problem is actually bug #16285. Sorry for the noise; marking

Yesterday was one of these days: found myself two big SCSI harddisks (4.6GB
+ 9.1GB) and a matching 53c825-based PCI SCSI card and installed Intrepid Ibex

Afterwards - i.e. after installing the latest patches - the version of the

Steps to trigger: install, reboot, configure timezone, shutdown (leave
it that way for a day or so) and... tada! There it is!
Anyway, one of these days, I'm going to reinstall the machine on which I

This is still an issue for me and the wrong timezone displays even if I
set it to Europe/Helsinki and then close and reopen the Time and Date
settings window. The wrong timezone (Europe/Mariehamn) is also displayed
after these:
cat /etc/timezone
Europe/Helsinki
sudo cp -v --remove-destination
Forgot to mention, my system is an updated Ubuntu 8.04 and the clock
applet is 2.22.2. Don't know how to check the version of the date and
time settings program.

To check this, I had to recover the computer exhibiting this problem from -
ahem - cold storage.
First boot showed the timezone to be America/El Salvador again - I reset it
to Europe/Brussels.
I then proceeded to install 350+ updates (about 4 months worth) - I

Sebastien,
Sorry for the delay in answering. My /etc/timezone file just contains
the line Europe/Brussels (the timezone I selected at install time, I
suppose).
And yes, tonight the timezone in the locations was yet again reset to
America/El Salvador. Spooky.
I'm currently installing the updates
I have notice this too, sometimes after boot my time zone has changed
from Europe/ Helsinki to America/Davenport (or something like that).my
