I just called Toshiba. They are aware of the issue. I told them it is happening on various Toshiba machines with various flavors of Linux (mainly Ubuntu). They said I need a CMOS battery reset (obviously) and then not to install Linux again. Great solution, huh ?! Since I am out of warranty a Toshiba Service Center "or your nearest Best Buy" can rest the CMOS "for a charge". I argued that it is a Toshiba issue and should be fixed free of charge - but no luck with that so far... (Maybe if enough people complain.)
