I really hope that computers that aren't "Windows 8 certified" such as those
that are custom built (either by yourself or a company, choosing your own
components and making a PC out of it) don't have Secure Boot. As long as
that's the case, I can deal with that since I only build my own compu
I've had a dig and on my system there is a variable
UTC=yes
set in /etc/default/rcS with the comment 'assume that the BIOS clock is set
to UTC'
You could try that,
I'm not trolling. Just thought I should relay some important news.
I'm running Trisquel 5.5 and I need to set my hwclock to utc. I'm used to
other Linux operating systems where I can set the correct time and edit
/etc/sysconfig/clock to change to HWCLOCK directive to "-u", and then run . I

Please stop feeding the Troll.
I actually hope no other GNU/Linux distribution will sign pacts with
Microsoft to merely be able to boot their system. If Canonical follows Red
Hat (and, I believe Novell) then manufacturers will keep on satisfying
Microsoft's demands (against discounts on the Windows licenses I guess) and
Exactly my thoughts. The only good news I read is RedHat's boot loader
will only load grub2, which can then be used to launch other free
operating systems, and not just RedHat's.
Still, Secure Boot will now be enabled by default on all devices, and
only a hidden setting turns it off.
Evil.
I read today that RedHat will pay Microsofot to make sure their operating
systems are able to boot with the upcoming Secure Boot that Microsoft may or
may not require OEMs to have:

One other thing. There are some reports on the web that there is a free
software compatible mini pcie chip. It is atheros wireless with atheros
bluetooth. This is not correct.
It appears a few people have made the mistake of believing they were
installing a free solution from a driver when
