I’m using KDE 4.9.1 and my time is slow by three minutes every time I reboot. I have the KDE time and date control module set to “set date and time automatically” and it uses the default server pool.ntp.org. The time is correct until I reboot. After reboot, if I change the server to something else, the time is correct again, but then is three minutes slow the next time I reboot. I had this same problem with openSUSE 12.1.
Anyone else getting this?
I had this problem with 12.2.
As best I can tell, the system time is not being written back to the CMOS clock when you shutdown the system. That might be
a bug.
In my case, I set time via ntp using a script. So I added a line to the script to force the updated time to the hardware clock.

Is the cmos clock set to “LOCAL”? In that case, there is no cmos clock adjustment.

In my case, the hardware clock is set to UTC.
My hardware clock is also set to UTC.
may check replace the battery for the cmos clock losing 3 min over night is not good
It loses three minutes after a reboot. I doesn’t matter if it’s one minute, one day, or one month.
Are you not experiencing this time discrepancy?
