[Bug 59518] system clock problems on imacs

[hendrikwout]

Public bug reported:


When the system clock is set to the year 1907, I can't log in with gnome cleanly (also not in failsave mode). You might want to ask why I set my time to 1907. Actually I don't, but when I pull out the power supply of my imac (which is disconnected from the internet so no ntp), the system clock is reset to the year 1907. 

It was a hard finding out that this was the problem and also a pain to
set the system clock to today (I had to log in with xterm and type 'sudo
time-admin').

** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
