Description xfred 2012-12-12 11:38:59 UTC
Kubuntu 12.04
last update caused clock to change to UTC time. i changed it back to EST time. why did the last update change time? seems to also happen when i reboot.

Are you talking about Kubuntu Active or the normal Kubuntu?
Comment 2 xfred 2012-12-13 21:40:18 UTC
normal kubuntu, i have been using it for some time now (it's installed on my hd), but each i get an update or i reboot, something goes weird with the digital time/clock app in the bottom launcher tab happens, the time reverts to UTC, but i am able to change it back, just that's it's weird doing that.
Comment 3 Thomas Pfeiffer 2012-12-16 13:22:04 UTC
This has nothing to do with Plasma Active.
It might be a Kubuntu-specific problem, but I'll reassign it to Systemsettings to see if they can make use of it.

I can't do much with this information; hopefully it's been working better since? The new timedated backend in 5.3 might fix it also.

Note that Plasma clock can show a differnet time from the system time .Run "date" in a command line to see if the system clock is correct.
