    Incorrect time displayed, then corrected

    Dell Latitude D600 laptop, dual-boot XP and Kubuntu Jaunty, all patches applied. The hardware clock is set to local time, so that the other OS will behave. rcS is set UTC=no

    When I boot and for the first minute or so after X starts, the time incorrectly displays 4 hours early (which is equal to my offset from UTC). Then it corrects itself.

    I am assuming that it is connecting to the NTP server and when it gets the time from there, it adjusts the local time displayed. This time is initially wrong and then corrected both on the X display, as well as the command date. All items logged have the wrong time until the correction.

    Anybody know how to fix this one?

    Thanks,
    JimR

    Hey there,

    The Ubuntu wiki has some information on how to fix this:
