Hello,

In System > general - localization I have changed the time zone - original was America / Los Angeles

Now there is a mismatch between the correct local time and the output of the shell command "date"

side question:

Is ntp working properly?

location: mainland China...

after booting back to B ..3.3 the time stays correct

I have set up UEFI time to UTC and selected the correct time zone in TN Scale WebGui


Bothers my mind with UEFI since I want to wake up the host using a UEFI option...

thank you @danb35 and @jgreco
