As for your clock, I operate the way you stated. If you want the system clock to be UTC and have the KDE desktop clock display local time or the time of any other time zone around the world as I do, first follow the SL Wiki article
HOWTO: Clock, Time, UTC, Dual boot with Windows (it's applicable even if you don't dual boot), then change the file /etc/conf.d/hwclock to be as follows:
- Code: Select all
# Set CLOCK to "UTC" if your Hardware Clock is set to UTC (also known as
# Greenwich Mean Time). If that clock is set to the local time, then
# set CLOCK to "local". Note that if you dual boot with Windows, then
# you should set it to "local".
clock="UTC"
# If you want the hwclock script to set the system time (software clock)
# to match the current hardware clock during bootup, leave this
# commented out.
# However, you can set this to "NO" ifyou are running a modern kernel
# with CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS set to y and your hardware clock set to UTC.
#clock_hctosys="YES"
# If you do not want to set the hardware clock to the current system
# time (software clock) during shutdown, set this to no.
clock_systohc="YES"
# If you wish to pass any other arguments to hwclock during bootup,
# you may do so here. Alpha users may wish to use --arc or --srm here.
clock_args=""
If, in addition, you want to keep your PC synchronised with a remote NTP time sever on the Internet, see the appropriate commands in my blog post
