[Trisquel-users] Trouble with date and time

[kopolee11]

Hello all,

I've been using Trisquel Mini 6.0 on my Asus Eee 1050HA PC (H-node link:  
http://ur1.ca/e72tf) for about two weeks so far. Everything is running very  
well for the most part. However, for some reason, the date and time on the  
netbook is usually very inaccurate, sometimes by a few hours, other times by  
several years. (As in, 2002)

I've looked into the BIOS itself - which unfortunately does not run coreboot  
- and I've manually changed the date and time myself, and then saved it.  
However, after shutting down my computer for any significant amount of time,  
the process will be restarted. I've also tried to look through the BIOS, to  
make sure it's using UTC time, but I am unable to find where this setting is.

And even when I do fix the date and time in the BIOS and boot into Trisquel,  
it does not always fix the date and time within Trisquel. And unfortunately I  
don't seem to know where the date and time setting menu is under Trisquel  
Mini.

Anyway, I appreciate any help that is provided. If you need me to provide  
more information and output of command line prompts, I'd be happy to do so.  
Thank you very much.
