Hi,

I have the following problems regarding the time settings in my machine.

I have a timezone of +8 from GMT. I have the hardware clock set to the
local time. However, when I boot up linux, the clock shown will be +8
hours from the local time. Everytime when I boot up linux, I need to
reset the clock shown back for 8 hours. How can I do some settings to
get rid of this problem?

Thanks.
