User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031023

Description of problem:
System didn't reset time as result of time change back to standard time from
central time.  Timezone set to Americas/New York.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
util-linux-2.11y-29

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set date prior to 10/26/2003 @ 2:00 AM
2. Wait for rollover to standard time.
3. Watch system miss rolling back the time 1 hour.
    

Actual Results:  Standard time set on box.

Expected Results:  Still in DST.

Additional info:

Unsure as to the guilty component.  May have to reassign.

kernel is 2.6.0-0.test8.1.66.  Didn't try with others, but will be happy to do so.

Comment 1 Elliot Lee 2003-10-28 14:41:24 UTC
May need to do the 'set system clock to GMT' thing... Give it a try with the FC1
kernel instead of that 2.6 monstrosity :)

Comment 2 Tom Wood 2003-10-28 19:36:17 UTC
But I *like* the monstrosity! ;-)  After all, it's Halloween!

Comment 3 Elliot Lee 2004-08-20 19:43:06 UTC
Worked fine for me just now. This is with the FC3 devel tree. I'm
pretty sure I don't have the hw clock set to UTC. I'm assuming it's
something weird with your system or it got fixed since.
