hi folks,
i know this must sound rather stupid, but anytime i set my clock via kde, the correct time will be lost after the next boot. bios-clock seems to be okay. any ideas?
cheers!

Make sure that you have the following setting configured in /etc/conf.d/clock:
| Code: | # If you want to set the Hardware Clock to the current System Time
# during shutdown, then say "yes" here.
CLOCK_SYSTOHC="yes" |

| Code: |
CLOCK="local"
TIMEZONE="Europe/Berlin"
CLOCK_OPTS=""
CLOCK_SYSTOHC="yes"
SRM="no"
ARC="no"
