I had this problem not too long ago, and I fixed it, but can't remember exactly how. It was caused by answering use GMT during setup long, long ago and fixed by changeing /etc/init.d/boot. There's a line in there that says GMT=<someting>, which if you make it say GMT="" and reboot all will be well. > Anyway, can someone tell me where there is some documentation on > this.
