setting bios clock?
 
Hi,

it's possibile to modify the bios clock from Linux?
"hardware clock" it's the same of "bios clock"?

Yes, check out the `hwclock` command, and it's option if you like: --systohc

This is how I set the time:

Code:
date -s "$month/$day/$year $hour:$minute:$second"
/sbin/hwclock -r
/sbin/hwclock --adjust
/sbin/hwclock --systohc
This is actually within a script.


All times are GMT -5. The time now is 06:30 PM.
