SliTaz SliTaz Forum archive

This forum is now a read-only archive

The SliTaz community has moved to Maille, a forum made for SliTaz.

We looked hard for a replacement for this aging forum, including a move from bbPress to FluxBB last June. But spam bots now get through sign-up even with mail confirmation, and these forum engines are barely maintained anymore. So we wrote a forum in the SliTaz spirit: small, fast, no JavaScript, works on old machines and in text browsers. Everything here stays readable.

Timezone issue

I go to Applications -> Preferences -> TimeZone Configuration

I select Europe/Bucharest and press OK

The timezone is correctly changed in /etc/TZ, however the clock is set 3h into the future. This shows that Slitaz considers the hardware clock to be always set to UTC, which is not the case.

How does Slitaz manage this? On other Linux systems this information is stored in /etc/sysconfig/clock, but there's no such thing on Slitaz.

Re: Timezone issue

I'm actually working on that. Linux by default assumes the system clock is running at UCT. With Debian based distros, you simply have to set UCT="no" in rcS.conf to fix this. With SliTaz we still have to figure out and implement such a feature. The fun part of a Linux from scratch hey wink

Re: Timezone issue

Understood, thank you.

Will change timezone to UTC, as this is really not a big deal anyway.
