trollord: set "UTC=no" in /etc/default/rcS. This setting will make
Ubuntu read and write to the hardware clock in localtime, rather than
UTC. Windows does the same by default, and thus you won't have problems
with them fighting over the clock's timezone. This is the default (in
Intrepid and Jaunty, anyway) for Ubuntu installations if Windows was
installed first.
David Nemeskey: Ticking "Set date and time manually" turns off NTP, so
no, it wouldn't check the time servers on startup. If Kubuntu was not
detecting your time zone change, then it's likely that your timezone
wasn't set correctly, because tzdata contains information on time zone
changes and is applied in (K)Ubuntu.
Marking this report as invalid; Windows using the hardware clock
differently from Ubuntu, Linux, and most other operating systems, is not
really something we can fix.
** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
