I'm having problems after an emerge -DuN system this morning. What's |
42 |
the proper solution to this? |

My mythbackend server is Linux only. The clock line is currently set |
49 |
to UTC. timezone is Los Angeles as it's always been. It's 9:45 as I |
50 |
write this but the clock thinks it's 17:45. 8 hours ahead is GMT, |
51 |
right? |
52 |
|
53 |
The hardware clock seems to be on GMT: |

dragonfly ~ # hwclock -r |

It seems the localtime file is messed up? |
60 |
|
61 |
dragonfly ~ # cat /usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime |
62 |
TZif21Local time zone must be set--see zic manual pageTZif21Local time |
63 |
zone must be set--see zic manual page |

Isn't that supposed to be a link to Los_Angeles in my case? Going to |
68 |
check the latest install docs. |
