Hi Cougar,
do you tried: dkpg-reconfigure locales?

Otherwise you might try (not sure if this will work):

-Set the link /etc/locatime  to your timezone
-maybe modify /etc/timezone, but I'm not sure if this isn't done
automatically anyway

This will hopefully set your timezone. To set the time:

-remove /etc/adjtime
-set your time with date
-set your hardwareclock to your system date with: hwclock --systohc

Maybe this helps.

Markus
