@juergbi: I think it should be get standard for paldo NOT using UTC, what do you think? |

The topic here is how to store and load the system time at shutdown resp. startup to/from the hardware clock. The issue is that Windows can't deal with UTC hardware clock but that's the only sane setting regarding for example daylight time saving change with multiple systems. |

Hi, I'm brand new to Paldo and pretty new to Linux. Really like Paldo; you're doing a great job! Right, onto my question - my clock is wrong and I am seemingly unable to correct it. During the install I did not have the option to configure my local time zone (New Zealand)... the closest I could get was Melbourne, Australia. Any suggestions would be welcome. Cheers
