#1923: Time Date inaccurate after booting up Haiku ---------------------------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: cebif | Owner: axeld Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: low | Milestone: R1 Component: Preferences/Time & Date | Version: R1/pre-alpha1 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All ---------------------------------------+--------------------------- Changes (by leavengood): * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid Comment: I am evaluating Time tickets due to the recent changes to Time by Hamish Morrison which I committed. I don't think this is valid anymore, for several reasons. Firstly this is really a difficult problem to solve in a general way because it depends on what other operating systems are installed on the machine. Haiku has a setting to use local or GMT time which is about the best it can do. More people use Windows so local time is a better default. Secondly now that NTP is built into Time you can at least be sure that Haiku will have the right time after booting :) Especially after my adding the NTP updating to the Bootscript in r41956. So I'm closing this. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/1923#comment:13> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
