Hm, set your hardware clock to UTC and do as root: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
rm /etc/localtime |
| 16 |
ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Canada/Newfoundland /etc/localtime |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
should work... |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newfoundland_Standard_Time_Zone suggests |
| 21 |
that it was changed just recently. Make sure your timezone-data ebuild |
| 22 |
is up to date and installed. In order to get an 2007 version, you might |
| 23 |
need to architecture unmask it. |

http://www.twinsun.com/tz/tz-link.htm has wealth of information |
| 26 |
regarding zoneinfo. |
