Title: Unable to set motherboard BIOS to UTC time, any idea how to do that?
Post by: moby on 03 October 2023, 22:00:18
My bios is permanently in local time because I only have lenovo laptop bios (it's for school) and not having the right time is driving me crazy.  I tried using ntpd but it doesn't really do anything and I can't find the package for ntpdate.  I'm in the CST time zone.

I don't think this is a issue with init system, but a time issue instead. If you're dual-booting with Windows, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_time#UTC_in_Microsoft_Windows (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_time#UTC_in_Microsoft_Windows)
