General :: Automatic Conversion To Daylight Saving Time

May 3, 2011

What should I have to do if I want to back again to the previous conf of automatic Conversion to Daylight saving. Also I noted that the o/p of the zdump -v /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo | grep 2011 was

/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo Thu Apr 28 21:59:59 2011 UTC = Thu Apr 28 23:59:59 2011 EET isdst=0 gmtoff=7200
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo Thu Apr 28 22:00:00 2011 UTC = Fri Apr 29 01:00:00 2011 EEST isdst=1 gmtoff=10800
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo Sat Aug 20 20:59:59 2011 UTC = Sat Aug 20 23:59:59 2011 EEST isdst=1 gmtoff=10800
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo Sat Aug 20 21:00:00 2011 UTC = Sat Aug 20 23:00:00 2011 EET isdst=0 gmtoff=7200

and changed to be
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo -9223372036854689408 = NULL
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo 9223372036854689407 = NULL
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo 9223372036854775807 = NULL

After adding the new rule
Note : these are the I made to disable auto conversion to daylight saving. I created a text file named nodst at usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa
Then type the following:
#Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S
Rule egypt 2011 2013 - Apr 29 00:00 0 s
# Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES/SAVE FORMAT [UNTIL]
Zone Africa/Cairo +2:00 egypt BRE%s
Then issue the following command
zic nodst
ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo /etc/localtime

Debian Configuration :: Daylight Savings Time - System Suspended

Apr 13, 2011

I seem to have run into the bug where my system was suspended when the DST change occurred (Not off so it didn't do it on reboot, not on so it couldn't do it then). I can't seem to find any way to do it manually. Is there any?

Ubuntu :: [Maverick] Xfce4-terminal Keys Act Weird/wrong?

Oct 16, 2010

Since the upgrade to Xubuntu 10.10, I'm having issues with Xfce4-terminal. When I use aptitude, the home and end keys don't scroll the list to the top or bottom. With vim, it generates input of adding a new line with F or H on it above the current line. Ctrl+arrow left/right also generate unwanted signals/characters.This does not happen with Kubuntu or Ubuntu and when I install Gnome-terminal and use that, everything works as you expect. This even happens on the live environment. I don't want to use gnome-terminal, as it pulls in more packages than I need and the Xfce4-terminal should just work.

Another thing that happens is that when I read a man page or close vim or aptitude, it behaves as if it's in a TTY: the text it just showed stays on screen or it clears the bunch in the current view and puts the prompt at the bottom. It should be that the application just closes and you get the prompt back the way it was before you started to read the man page for example.It is purely a terminal emulator problem. Does anyone have a solution for these issues?

Ubuntu :: Maverick - Get Sound Out Of Tvtime Time In 10.10?

Oct 18, 2010

How to get sound out of tvtime time in ubuntu 10.10? If so have you also been able to get the internal volume control to work. I just amazed that ubuntu devs would just shut off this functionality that affects much more the just tvtime and not offer a viable alternative. Is there an alternative? I haven't been able to find after a week or so of googling.

Mar 19, 2011

since the upgrade tzdata (2011c-0ubuntu0.10.04) to 2011d-0ubuntu0.10.04which I installed on Saturday, ntp updates seem to put me in GMT time.I've switched to manual time settings, as it does horrific things to my mythtv database!I'm not sure if its the upgrade, or the ntp time servers. My timezone is Australia/Tasmania.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Rhythmbox Time Tags Wrong Using EasyTag?

Jan 31, 2010

I just used EasyTAG 2.1.5 under Ubuntu 9.10 to update the tags on my music files running on Rhythmbox 0.12.5, and now Rhythmbox shows that the runtimes (Time) of dozens of my mp3's are now 27:03:11. That means Rhythmbox thinks all those songs are 27 hours, 3 minutes, and 11 seconds long, which they are not. Some are now shown as 54:06:23. So far they are all playing correctly, but the slider at the top of the Rhythmbox window barely moves, making it difficult, if not impossible, to jump to different points in the songs. Nothing else seems to have been affected.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Wrong Time Duration After Concatenating Mp3 Files?

Nov 5, 2010

I have the following problem;When I concatenate several mp3 files the time duration is falsely detected by Rhythmbox when I open the newly created mp3 file. VLC Player however detects the correct time duration. I tried two ways of mergen the mp3's and both have the same falsely result. - mp3wrap- catI currently fixed it by opening the mp3 in VLC player and converted it again to a mp3 file which resolved the issue at hand. However this is not a solution I would like to have, nor a answer to what is the cause of the problem.So my question is simple -- what is the issue with the mp3 file and why is Rhythmbox indicating a falsely time duration?

OpenSUSE :: System Time Is Always Wrong After Reboot

Jan 6, 2011

Every time I reboot my computer the system time always comes up exactly 10 hours behind where it should be. So if I reboot it at 16:00 it comes up as 06:00.

This has only been happening since I got back from a trip to Australia, where I naturally changed the computer's timezone to match the local one. I'm now back in Central European Time which is 10 hours behind Australia's. This is on opensuse 11.3.

I've used the YAST date and time tool to set the timezone correctly, and /etc/localtime is set correctly:

Code:
:~> sha1sum /etc/localtime
b065fae6bda0f0642ca6a52b665768e34a99d213 /etc/localtime
:~> sha1sum /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin
b065fae6bda0f0642ca6a52b665768e34a99d213 /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin

Fedora :: Can't Start Because Last Mountpoint Time Is Wrong

Jan 25, 2011

I noticed today that my F13 date was one month out i.e October 30th instead of September 30th.Time was okay. I tried to adjust it manually but no success. Now if I try to start up I get to the first blue screeen but then it says something like "last mountpoint date was October 30th = now September 30th which is in the future" (not exact wording). Time zone is correct and not set to network time or UTC. I'm dual booting with WinXP and date and time is correct and Time Zone is correct. System time is correct. So now to get into F13 I have to manually set the system time to 30th October.Which is OK for the 1st reboot but reverts back to the correct date on the next reboot. WinXP boots ok.

Ubuntu :: Change Data On Location? System Time Always Wrong On Re-boot

Mar 30, 2011

when I installed Ubuntu 9.10 I put in one time setting but it was wrong, and now I don't know where to change it. I tried to change the time preferences, but on reboot I am back to the wrong time.

I know the data is in there somewhere and I can change if I knew where it was.

Fedora :: Clock - Boot Into To 12 Time Is Wrong But Not In Windows

Oct 29, 2009

I'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.

Ubuntu :: 10.04 - Crontab And Daylight Savings?

Nov 12, 2010

I recently set up some new cron jobs under Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit (all the latest patches as of Nov. 11th) and just happened to check right after one was supposed to run and it hadn't run yet. Checking the logs I found the previous cron job ran exactly one hour later than it was supposed to. Is there something going on with Ubuntu 10.04, cron, and daylight savings where cron pretends daylight savings never happened or something?

Hardware :: Hwclock (BIOS): Time Set Wrong During Shutdown And Also Reboot?

Nov 15, 2010

System time was drifting ahead increasingly for several days time in the end. This is what I did with the clock about 6 hours "in the future":

Quote:

sntp -P no -r pool.ntp.org
hwclock --systohc

i.e. I got the (more or less) exact time from the time server and set the hardware / BIOS timer with this value.I renamed "/etc/adjtime" to beginn with a clean slate. During reboot (shut down phase) I noticed a message saying something like: "hwclock set to system time". I checked in the BIOS and there was a new time about one hour early(!). The boot phase then reset the time again, this time several hours forward (usually two to six hours). This is an iterating process, with a net gain of several hours per boot. It is not always whole hours -- like in a time zone error but it involves also minutes. System is set to UTC as affirmed by the "date" command. What could be the cause of this behaviour of the clock / timer?

Software :: MySQLdump Reported Completed But Wrong Time Shown

Jan 14, 2010

I just backup my mysql db using mysqldump. I run it around 6pm of the evening but I just notice that on the last part of the dump file, it says "Dump completed on 2010-01-14 11:30:01". The time is "Jan 14 19:30" when I run mysqldump. Though the content is corrent, I still want to know why the dump reported it was completed but wrong time. I don't have my.cnf on my /etc so it means all was default by mysql. If I'm not mistaken, timezone by default in mysql is gmt.

My /etc/sysconfig/clock is
ZONE="Asia/Manila"
UTC=true
ARC=false

When I do "select now();" on mysql shell, it was the same with my system. I want to prove my backup was right but this thing confuse me a bit.

OpenSUSE Install :: Daylight Savings Changeover - RTC Not Being Rewritten

Jul 7, 2010

My system was powered down at daylight savings changeover. Like many Linux users, I keep my RTC on local time so that I can still boot XP on the odd occasion. With my older Linux distros, ntpd would correct the system time during the next boot, and the altered system time would be copied to the RTC on shutdown (by hwclock). This no longer seems to happen. During boot, ntpd corrects the system-time, and the users sees the right time, but the corrected time is never copied to the RTC. The issue only becomes a problem if the system is booted without access to any ntp servers - in which case the system time is visible uncorrected.

I was under the impression that the kernel's 11-minute save-RTC mode should preserved any NTP corrected system-time to the RTC. And failing that, a shutdown triggered hwclock --systohc should have also corrected the RTC. How come neither work for openSUSE (11.2)? Another issue is that having initially booted without an internet connection, ntpd refuses to re-resolve the the ntp servers and has to be manually restarted. Shouldn't ntpd have a roadwarrior option to retry resolving hosts? - this would save having to manually kick it via the command line or cron.

Slackware :: Timezone Adjustment For Daylight Savings Automatically

Apr 2, 2011

We just had daylight savings change (the clocks went back one hour at 2am). he machine that was on at 2am adjusted it's time on it's own. All the other machines (5 of them) were off at 2am are still on the 'old' time.Wwhat's the best way to ensure I don't have to adjust these manually next time daylight savings change? Maybe "ntpdate -s time.nist.gov &" in rc.local?

OpenSUSE Install :: Time Wrong In XEN Kernel But Right In Desktop Kernel?

Feb 11, 2010

I have a system running openSUSE 11.2 with Desktop and XEN kernel, as well as Windows 7 (not by choice though...). I have noticed a strange time issue, with Windows 7 and the desktop kernel the time is correct (like for example now: 1:32 PM) but in the XEN kernel it is ahead several hours (6:32 PM). If it was an issue between openSUSE and windows then I would think that it is a problem with the system clock but I don't know what would cause a time issue between kernels like that.

Slackware :: Clock Shows The Wrong Time In Slackware

May 10, 2011

I've been running arch linux, with my clock set to UTC with no problem. Recently I installed slackware on a different partition. During the setup I chose to set my clock to 'local time' instead of UTC by accident. Now in slackware my clock shows the wrong time. Also in arch it shows the same wrong time.

I booted back into slackware and ran pkgtool to enter the setup again, and changed my time to UTC. But this makes no difference. My clock is still wrong in both slackware and arch. Do I need to reboot after changing my clock settings in slackware before it takes effect? how the clock or the setup works.

Ubuntu :: After Log In Takes Long Time To Show Desktop, Monitor Events At Log In Time?

May 24, 2011

It takes me a while to log in the splash screen just sits there for ages before i get to the desktop. Never used to be this slow and I'm not sure why. Firstly, I'm running Ubuntu 11.04, standard DE. I do have conky starting up in a script but it has the & at the end of the line so I didn't think this would cause it (or is there some special case for log in time on how & is treated?). However as a test I will comment out the line in the script and see if it is the cause.

However just for general knowledge and in case that isn't the problem, how does one go seeing what is happening during the time from when one log's in and the desktop is displayed? Is there some kind of log that shows the date/time that can be enabled or is there a debug mode that can be enabled somehow via special keys or maybe from grub?
