[Solved] "set time" on desktop : nothing happens
« on: April 26, 2023, 06:37:10 AM »
Hello,

In 2011 a heroe a heroe member reported that the "Set Time" entry in the context menu (on desktop) did not work (cf. http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,12007.msg63909.html#msg63909.

Today, for me, this issue isn't solved in Coreplus 14.0 i686.

Thank you.

Friendly.

Hello everybody,

I just figured out SystemTools/SetTime on desktop.
This is the time setting of the computer via the Internet (pool.ntp.org).

Tinycore is great  ;).

Amen

Hi Rantanplan,

Is Your "Set time" ok already?

Hello @jazzbiker,

It is set in UTC time.
I saw the subject, and the wiki, about setting tz in the bootloader.

Thank you.

Well, nice!

I don't remember whether wiki reminds about refreshing Your RTC according to the system time, but I found this convenient
Code: [Select]
sudo hwclock -w -u

By the way if Your issue is gone You may want to ask our admin @Rich mark the topic as solved ;-)

Have a nice Core!
