I can live with that. :-)
I'm confused. If I have my linux desktops configured to display local
time instead of GMT (or at least I used to in versions of Fedora prior
to F28, I haven't checked if upgrades have continued to maintain that
setting) and have the bios in my motherboard set to operate on local
time, how is linux using GMT when everything is running local. I run
things this way because I tri-boot between Fedora 28, Ubuntu and Windows 10.
Irrespective of the above, if journalctl -b 0 displayed the "journals"
for the current boot session, the timestamps shown on those messages are
wrong if they are GMT. With the timezone I am in, now that we are on
daylight savings time, we are 11 hours ahead of GMT. As I booted the
system on Nov 08 at 07:16, GMT time is Nov 07 18:16 not Nov 08 18:16 as
displayed by journalctl. If the timestamps on the messages relative to
the boot processing before the desktop get loaded, are not GMT but a
combination of local date and GMT time, that can lead to all sorts of
confusion as to when the messages are really for.
regards,
Steve
