Can someone pls clarify what exactly is broken about localtime? I've been using it for years without any (noticable) issue. I'll be happy to switch over if I need to, but I'd like to understand the problem(s) first.
There are some implementational problems and some conceptual ones. Please have a look at the link I gave to the systemd page for a brief description as well as <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/mswish/ut-rtc.html> for the very interested.
Sounds like a hardware problem then. Maybe the bios should tell the OS if the clock is in localtime or UTC. ;)
