[Bug 874318] Re: Installer assumes that current bios time is UTC

[riu]

** Description changed:

  After installation of oneiric, the clocks were moved a few hours
  forwards. (The computer is behind a proxy, so the time can't be updated
  automatically.) If you don't know about the bug and/or forget to reset
  the time after installation,  it can bring a lot of confusion. E.g.,
  Ubuntu One refuses to work if the time is wrong
  
- When you select your timezone, it should you tell the installer what
- timezone your clock currently are in. But currently the installer
- behaves as if the current timezone is UTC, and you switch to a new
- timezone.
- 
- change current time, it should only update information about the
- timezone.
+ When you select your timezone, you tell the installer what timezone your
+ clock currently are in. But currently the installer behaves as if the
+ current timezone is UTC, and you switch to a new timezone.
