[Bug 367164] [NEW] "Set date and time automatically" doesn't work

[Martin]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

When I check "Set date and time automatically" in systemsettings, that
will set the time and date that one time, but the next time I open
systemsettings, the option is always unchecked again.

Is this thing supposed to adjust date&time automatically in regular
intervals? With ntpd?

If it's not, the labeling and the interface with the checkbox is
misleading and should be changed (like from a checkbox to a button).
That would make it more clear that what you're doing is a one-time
synchronization, not setting the system up to undergo regular
synchronization with a time server.
