Yeah, every time I boot my notebook, it resets the clock to what is possibly UTC. I used to set region/timezone by right clicking the gnome clock.

Where do I do that now ?
OK, got that in the menu {Date & Time}. timezone is set correctly, and UTC is not checked. adding a ntp server {that works from ntpdate au.pool.ntp.org}, doesn't get the clock set.

Actually, this may have never worked eg: I think I may have previously needed to service ntpd stop, let the applet fix time, then service ntpd start.

system-config-date to set the timezone and choose whether the clock updates by ntp. The checkbox for 'System Clock uses UTC' is probably checked for you. If you toggle back and forth between Windows and Linux this will cause you that kind of grief.
I don't. Machine hw clock has always been in local time.

If you're not using windows, then it might be a problem with the hardware clock getting set at all when ntp changes your time, or perhaps you've got a dead battery?
It occurs on two rawhide machines - a 1 year old notebook, and a 4 year old dell poweredge server.

Does the date stay correct?
No. Well - it is matched / by the time difference:
local 2008-04-08 23:30,
shows 2008-04-09 19:30.

So this would be a new feature=fault or not ?
