Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64
Installed from Windows XP with Wubi rev129
current wall clock time : 17:30
UTC time : 15:30
Windows system setting for timezone : (GMT+01:00) Belgrade, Bratislava,
Budapest, Ljubljana, Prague
(summer time is in effect)
I installed Ubuntu and after booting into it, the situation is like
this:
st...@ubuntu:~$ date -u
Thu Jul 30 17:34:05 UTC 2009
st...@ubuntu:~$ date -R
Thu, 30 Jul 2009 13:34:10 -0400
st...@ubuntu:~$ date
Thu Jul 30 13:34:22 EDT 2009
st...@ubuntu:~$ cat /etc/timezone
America/New_York
st...@ubuntu:~$ sudo hwclock --show
Thu 30 Jul 2009 01:37:41 PM EDT -0.630628 seconds
After booting back to windows:
displayed time : 13:40
$ date -u
11:40
So:
- <my conclusions about what did Ubuntu right and what wrong deleted, as they
were initially wrong and I and tired. You are smart, figure it out.>
- timezone is wrong, it should be Europe/Ljubljana or similar

st...@ubuntu:~$ sudo hwclock --show
Thu 30 Jul 2009 01:37:41 PM EDT -0.630628 seconds
So:
- it reads the hwclock as if it were in UTC and not localtime; the
resolution of bug 8088 suggests, that localtime should be used (actually it
should be asked)
- - consequently it writes it wrong on shutdown (I guess it synchronized over
internet during uptime)
- timezone is wrong, it should be Europe/Ljubljana or similar
