Since I have updated to Raring (and I have done it twice on different partitions, once an install from the DVD and once an update from 12.10 -- both times with the same result concerning this problem), I have strange time problems.
After the installation, the time is correct at Paris Time (I live in France), UTC+2 (in the summer). BUt if I go in System Settings > Date and Time and try to tell it to "Set date and time automatically", either with pool.npt.org or europe.pool.npt.org, and then click on apply, it thinks for 10-15 seconds, then comes back with the automatic-set option unclicked and the time on UTC, two hours behind.
If I then click to go back to the SS overview, it tells me the settings have been changed and asks if I should apply them, a clear indicator that the precedent apply did not function correctly. Which I already knew.
It gets worse: For every boot after that, the system comes up with UTC and I must set it manually to UTC+2.
For info,
$ cat /etc/timezone
Europe/Parisj
Also,
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
Current default time zone: 'Europe/Paris'
Local time is now: Sat Aug 17 09:09:43 CEST 2013.
Universal Time is now: Sat Aug 17 07:09:43 UTC 2013.
set the clock correctly. Do I have to put this into my .bashrc?
Which brings up another question: In ksh, there are two profiles (as I recall), one running at logon and one running at shell creation. I presume .bashrc corresponds to the latter.
