[fc9] bios clock problems with dual boot

[deathkill]

i installed 2 dual boot systems,
one is fc9 + win2000 and the other is fc9 + vista

now what happens is that if i boot fedora the time gets auto set with ntp... and all is fine

but... when i boot back to windows all of the sudden the time is set back 2 hours.

this happens everytime and on both systems..

whats going on?

i never had this with any of the previous fredora releases.

Are your Windows and Fedora installs set up with differing policies as to whether the system clock is set to GMT?

Hello Deathkill

What is the time difference between your place an GMT?

To resolve the issue try the following.

hwclock --localtime --systohc

Also make sure that UTC is unchecked in this command

 timeconfig

And it wouldn't hurt to turn off ntpdate

[deathkill]

what's wrong with ntp?

There seems to be a bug, which was discussed in this thread :
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/...d.php?t=190556

And a bug report found here :

Not sure if it relates to your situation, but the solution I tried on my box was exactly the opposite. Maybe these posts will give you some hint.
