System Time is not Correct

Postby Tool » Sat Jun 29, 2013 6:24 pm

Ok, my 3.5 64 bit is not keeping time. I thought at first it was the bios battery, but that is good. I'm suspecting it's a broken system, but not sure as I have done the Kde backports. I have another OS that keeps time perfect, but the 3.5 even after I set it on bios and on the OS itself only stays for about an hour then jumps exactly 7 hours ahead. I was wondering if anybody might have a solution? It won't connect to the server for time keeping as it seems broken, even though I have web access. The time isn't normally a problem, but it does prevent playback of Netflix. I will also note that when the time jumps forward 7 hours, it also changes the bios time. I have another OS installed and it keeps perfect time and so does the bios until I boot back into 3.5. I would play Netflix through the other OS (Ubuntu 13.04, YUCK!!), but 3.5 is the only one I actually have success on with the sound outputting through the HDMI. I'm not expecting much effort on this to be honest as I am just waiting for the next 3.5-2 to come out :D, but if anybody might now of a fix off hand, that would be great. Thanks guys. :D

Is the timezone correct? If so you could use hwclock to reset the hardware clock through 3.5
Code: Select all
hwclock  --systz

Or you can look at something like this:

I do not think that ntp is fully installed in 3.5 (or any other Ubuntu system). You may want to FULLY install it and use ntpd.

Thanks. The timezone is correct. It just started doing it about 3 weeks ago. I'll install the ntpd

LOL. Yes. I'll install the ntpd tomorrow and see if that works. I gotta switch monitors so I can see the text to make sure I don't screw something up. :D I'll try that first before I explore other options as that would be the easiest probably.

Seems that the system is setting the bios and OS to UTC time....I had once installed PC linux dual boot with windows and the PC-liunx kept setting my clock to UTC which windows doesn't like
