Apparently, though unproven, at 11:24 on Sunday 31 October 2010, Mick did
opine thusly:
> I dual boot with MSWindows and therefore have set up my /etc/conf.d/clock
> to:
>
> CLOCK="local"
> TIMEZONE="Europe/London"
> CLOCK_OPTS=""
> CLOCK_SYSTOHC="no"
> SRM="no"
> ARC="no"
>
> I noticed this morning that the clock was still showing summer time (I
> rarely boot into MSWindows).
>
> I had to boot into MSWindows to check what happens there and the clock was
> showing the new winter time. After that the Linux clock was also showing
> the updated winter time.
>
> Does this mean that twice a year when the clock changes I need to boot into
> MSWindows first to allow the time change to take place, or is there a Linux
> side fix for my dual boot set up?
