I'm on CEST and time on my laptop is constantly going to UTC. I set up my timezone to Europe/Skopje, in /etc/timezone value is also Europe/Skopje but i must manualy adjust time +2 hours on every boot. In system setting I'm checking "Set date and time automatically" box, when I click on apply it become grey for 30 seconds and then box is unchecked again. I didn't have this problem on 12.10 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Adjust the time manualy to +2 hours 2. Set the timezone to Europe/Skopje 3. Reboot Actual Results: Time is back to UTC Expected Results: Time to be at CEST 1366230 1 vladoboss 2013-05-04 13:47:14 +0000 Also I noticed that when I change timezone to Europe/Sarajevo (which is also CEST, GMT+2) and check the box for Automatically set time and date, clock on the system tray is adjusting to correct time, but on System setting remains the same. Also in bash with the command "date" it is still showing the wrong time and timezone is UTC. And when I adjust manually the clock in system settings two hours ahead, on system tray clock goes +4 hours, and on bash get the correct time but still with wrong timezone (UTC). It's a complete mess. 1378983 2 thywalls 2013-06-23 22:01:58 +0000 Duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317999 ? 1378999 3 adaptee 2013-06-24 01:21:43 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 317999 *** 1379046 4 vladoboss 2013-06-24 09:37:19 +0000 I solved this issue with: date --set="2 JUN 2013 18:00:00" and dpkg-reconfigure tzdata Now clocks in terminal and kdeclock are synchronized 1379054 5 thywalls 2013-06-24 09:55:06 +0000 Yes Vlado, it creates a new /etc/localtime like i said in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317999#c7 directly without symlink, but if you enter in clock settings, it messed again the file and the problem comes back.
