I too have a clock problem (the time returned by "date" being one hour 
fast), and I have been fiddling with "hwclock" without finding the right 
way. When I saw the above post, I thought that it gave me the answer, 
and tried to apply it, but had no success (I used both --utc and 
--localtime).

The legal time, here in France and at this (winter) period, is GMT + 1, 
as shown correctly by the clock of my iMac, but "date" keeps returning 
GMT + 2.

Can anyone figure out the solution?
