Easy one! About the time in the corner...

Anyone here running Mandrake 9.1 with KDE and have the time in the corner shift up? Sounds crazy. The font moves upwards, not the date, just the time and the you can only see the lower half of the time. I reset it by hiding and bringing the taskbar back. No pattern to when it does it.

Anyone out there with this and know fo a fix?

Any chance this could of been the one of those reasons Mandrake needed to put out almost 300 megs of updates just days after releasing 9.1?

 

Turi, are you up to date with these updates?

 

James, has this happened since you have reinstalled/upgraded?

I do have all the updates. So what is the flux bar? Maybe a snappshot pic of it?

rcxau, then you do still have the problem or you just now use the "flux bar" and it doesn't happen anymore?

Pretty sure the whole time thing is screwed!

 

Aren't there a whole set of threads about the HW clock being moved on an hour every reboot. Hopefully its fixed in the updates.

 

It doesn't happen if you use a NTP server, only if you use bios time.

 

Perhaps this is linked to the whole clock problem????

Yes. I had that hour move thing problem for about a month. Pain in the butt. It got fixed with a Mandrake re-install, setting the time to NTP, not BIOS. I think it has to do with the timezone. It sees the BIOS as GMT and then reads your setting for timezone info to what to set it, then again, I know that is an option, you can just have it read as local time. Anyways, don't take my workd for it, all I know that the time doesn't move anymore. I believe the updaets would have helped too, because I had someone else with the same problem, did updates, no more. I guess then the re-install was not the solution, anyways...
