I tend to agree hence the comment. I decided to take a look at things
so reset the bios clock to GMT. I then went into rc.config and used
the gmt switch and defined the timezone as PST8PDT. Upon rebooting, my
system has the correct time. I am somewhat unsure what this will mean
for me down the road. But it seems okay. So another timezoneish
question comes to mind. Lets say you have a laptop and manage to
travel from San Francisco/Oakland to Chicago to see some well known
tradeshow out there (comdex comes to mind :)). The laptop is running
suse 6 also. So I am crossing a few timezones to get to Chicago. What
is the elegant way to deal with this on the laptop. I would think
resetting the bios to gmt and then managing the timezone variable
would be easy. But this requires a reboot or so the timezone thingee
says. What do others do that travel? Just curious here. Do others not
deal with timezone variations when they travel with a suseified laptop?
