Could it be this simple? Quoting: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
# /etc/conf.d/clock |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
# Set CLOCK to "UTC" if your system clock is set to UTC (also known as |
| 24 |
# Greenwich Mean Time). If your clock is set to the local time, then |
| 25 |
# set CLOCK to "local". Note that if you dual boot with Windows, then |
| 26 |
# you should set it to "local". |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
CLOCK="local" |
