I'm using a very simple conky script to diplay the date and time on my desktop. I've noticed that he conky clock is a few seconds early compared to the time displayed in the right hand side of the top panel (Natty). I guess both displays are based on the same "internal" time, so I'm left wondering how this could happen, and how to sync back the clocks.
It seems that Conky is in sync with the system date, while the panel clock is 2 seconds late (on my system). Checked with while true; do date; sleep 0.1; done
Just curious as to if it is possible to have the clock in the center of the task bar centered clock in Ubuntu 11.04?

However, the time showing in os using date command differs from bios time by roughly 4 hours. I am running ntp services which sync the time with another centos server on the network. It appears that some services are using virtual clock and some use physical clock. How do I get rid of virtual clock and only use physical clock?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen installing I perhaps mistakingly told Fedora it should use the BIOS clock and now it shows the wrong time, 1 hour ahead of my time-zone GMT+0. If I try and go to the preferences and set the time the 'Advanced Options' one of which I need are grayed out, I need the 'Use local time source' option to be unchecked. Could somebody tell me a workaround or the command-line commands to tell it not to do this anymore?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been running a fedora server for over a year now, and has seen some very strange issue, that really make it uncomfortable to use, and that I cannot manage to solve easily.
The problem is as follow : sometimes (every 20-30 minutes or so : this time is quite random), the server completely hangs.
I'm using it mainly remotely, through ssh and nfs. What I see when it "hangs" is the following:
-no ping response
-nfs stalled
-ssh sessions hangs (for example, if I run a "top" command", it just isn't updated anymore
-disk activity led stays completely off (in normal activity, it is almost always blinking, even due to "internal" server activities, so network disconnection doesn't explain that either)
The most strange thing is that, to resume it, I basically have 3 options : wait (sometimes few tens of seconds, usually between 2 and 4 minutes!), just hit a key on the keyboard!, or do something like un/plugging any king of usb peripheral (which makes me think of some interruption mechanism that is stalled).
When it "wakes up", I see my "top" session over ssh suddenly being quickly updated hundreds of times (for all it has not received during the "pause"), ping says that the packets have actually all been received (with long times, for example, packet 1 : 80xxxms, packet 2 : 79xxxms, packet 3 : 78xxxms..... packet 79 : 1xxxms, packet 80 : 0.xxxms), the disk is quite overloaded for a few seconds, and everything is back at normal!
Furthermore, I think this i related, but my clock drifts for few hours per day (3 holding minutes every 20-30 minutes makes me think there is some relation!)
I tried to set up ntpd to compensate it, but sometimes the suspensions are just too long, and I ended up with
Code:
Nov 27 01:22:36 server ntpd[699]: 0.0.0.0 0617 07 panic_stop +1203 s; set clock manually within 1000 s
and ntpd dies...
You'll ask me to have a look at the log, which I did by
Code:
But when the suspension happens, there is absolutely nothing new in all those files!

I said in the title "F13-F14", because I already had the problem with F13, but after some time it disappeared (I may have changed some configuration, I have to admit...). I still have a backup of the "/etc" tree of that "working" F13.
The hardware for F13[working] and F14[not_working] is the same : Phenom II X4 on an ASUS M3N78 PRO, data on raid 10, system on separated SATA disk, 8Gb RAM, some qemu vms running (between 4 and 6).
I have dual boot on my comp. Windows XP and Fedora 11 Now in both systems time zone is set to Belgrade ( which is my time zone), but when I setup clock in fedora to be, let's say 16.15h, then when I swich to windows it says time is 14.15h. When I setup in windows on 16.15h, and I swich to fedora, it says time is 18.15h. So I can't get accurate time on both systems in no way.

View 9 Replies View RelatedBy default, Fedora 11 sets my clock to military time. For example it says 16:22. I would like it to show civilian time (or at least know how to do it) I logged into the clock settings and had to put in the root password, but couldn't find where you do this. If you scroll on the time for hours, it just goes from 0 to 23 and back, not to AM and PM like some others.

The only way I can can switch applications is with alt+tab. Sorry if this may sound dumb if it is a simple fix, but I have looked around in System>Preferences/Administration and could not find anything.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIt simply doesn't work. No matter what city I put there (I even tried putting American cities) the applet just widens a bit to the left and shows nothing. Doing some searches, I learned the protocol it uses is called METAR, the data is provided by airports, and the list of locations is at:[URL]..
But this file doesn't exist! What exists is:[URL].. And that one only has American cities. But, as I said, not even American cities work. Where should I start looking?
I am sure I am not the only one that would like to have this feature. This feature was in the old software packages. Is there anyway to add to the clock programs not only the 12 hour feature also a 24 hour feature as an option. I am kinda old fashion person and like the 24 hour readout versus the 12 of either AM or PM.

I want to set up a web server, and I want to set up NTP so to always keep the clock in sync. I have installed a very basic system (No GUI or X components), to keep it slim and thereby a little less prone to security problems. However, does anybody know what the Synchronize system clock before starting option in system-config-date actually does in terms of changing config files or permissions? I'd like to know so I can do it manually via the commandline.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm running windows 7 and the F12 Beta (although the same issue existed in my f11 distro) on an asus g71 bb. When ever I boot into windows my time is correct. If I boot into to F12 my time is wrong. Usually by 4 hours. If I change it in Linux when I boot into windows I end up switching the time on my windows partition. I tried searching the forum (rather casual I'll admit) and couldn't find any solutions.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm experiencing a strange problem with GNOME Clock on Fedora 13. When the applet is in the bottom panel, and I click on the clock, the popup display appears at the top of the screen rather than at the bottom of the screen (above the bottom panel) as would be expected. Worse, the display appears higher than would be expected had the clock been on the top panel, meaning the display is cutoff (ie, the display goes off the top of the screen). I've tried playing with my .gconf files, and removing and re-adding the GNOME Clock applet, but nothing has worked. I'm not sure if this is a weird quirk particular to my settings, or a more general bug; can readers here check to see if the behavior I've described occurs if the Clock applet is added to the bottom panel?
View 8 Replies View RelatedAfter upgrading to F13 certainly - but from time to time my clock in Gnome will throw a wobbly. Not even consistent wobblies, sometimes the weather is missing completely, as now, sometimes only a slice of the weather icon appears, and the time/date display can be garbled. It seems to happen after a change such as booting up or a weather update, I've tried removing the applet from the panel and re-installing it, and even removing and re-installing the top panel. I'm reluctant to try removing and reinstalling Gnome-applets as that can remove a whole slew of dependencies and possibly bork an otherwise reliable install, after all I can live with it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm a very new Fedora user, and I've stumbled upon an issue which I can't seem to resolve. Having had a good look through similar issues, I'm still stuck.I have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo M3438G laptop, upon which I've recently installed Fedora 14. It seems to work great apart from one thing; CPU speed. The processor in the laptop should run at 2GHz. At the moment, it's running at 600MHz, and I simply can't get it any higher.
I've played around with power profiles a bit, not really knowing what I'm doing, but the issue seems to be that the CPU is somehow reporting to the Operating System that it's top speed is 600MHz.The BIOS on this laptop is very limited, and doesn't give me any clocking options whatsoever, so I can't manually set things like multipliers, etc.So, I guess my first question would be - how does the OS find out what the processor speed is, and is there any way of manipulating the top speed? Surely there must be a way for Speedstep compatible processors to exceed their initial clocks?
I noticed that the language es_ES (Spanish Spain), has a problem, you can't put the clock in 12 hours format, I was googling for a while and found that it should edit the file
Code:
/usr/share/i18n/locales/es_ES
Find these lines
Code:
am_pm "";""
t_fmt_ampm ""
and replace with
Code:
am_pm "<U0041><U004D>";"<U0050><U004D>"
t_fmt_ampm "<U0025><U0049><U003A><U0025><U004D><U003A><U0025><U0053>/
<U0020><U0025><U0070>"
But I did it and still don't show me the option to change the clock to 12 hour format, I tried changing the es_NI language (Spanish Nicaragua) and gives me the option of 12 hours, but the languages of programs like firefox, thunderbird, openoffice change to English.What can i do to have language es_ES and 12 hours format on my clock? or es_NI language with firefox, thunderbird etc. in spanish?
