[PLUG] Kubuntu Time Problem

[Aaron Ten Clay]

Hello all,

My mother's computer is exhibiting a strange problem, and I'm not familiar 
enough with Kubuntu/Debian to figure it out. Whenever the PC is powered down, 
it comes back up with the system clock being hours off. I'm guessing what's 
happening is the RTC is being written UTC at shutdown and being read as local 
at startup. I installed OpenNTPd (what I run on all my gentoo boxes and have 
great success with) and it keeps the time perfectly synced while the system 
is on, but as soon as it reboots the clock is off so far the adjtime syscall 
fails. (Seems like 8 hours or so, which makes sense for the timezone 
difference)

The box only runs this distro (i.e. no windows messing with the clock) and 
everything is all up to date.

I'd appreciate any insight.

Thanks,
Aaron
