Currently on a system with ubuntu and awesome as the window manager.

For some reason changing the timezone in gnome control center does not do a thing. Running date returns the right timezone (as this was modified by appending TZ='America/Los_Angeles'; export TZ in .bashrc), but as the clock widget runs by gnome control center's watch, my clock is always set on the wrong (previous) time zone.

I have NTP installed and the time is correct, it's simply that the timezones are not being changed properly.

  • what does this do? I changed UTC=yes to UTC=no and changing the timezone still does not actually modify the time.
