They should bring the ntp service as one can see in https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/services/desktop.scm#n1083 file. I expected that it would sync system time, but it did not. I have still been getting the time of my computer BIOS in a terminal, not the synced one. Also in Xfce DE Clock. I have no idea how to debug it and fix. Any help will be appreciated. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

If system clock is too late (or too far in the future) ntpd will not update it «Normally, ntpd exits if the offset exceeds the sanity limit, which is 1000 s by default. » [1] Is this your case? > Also in Xfce DE Clock.

Set your clock (via date command or some GUI) and then "sudo hwclock --systohc" to update your BIOS clock. Last but not least: check your hardware clock setting are preserved between reboots, if not you should change it's battery (if it's not broken). HTH!

I had CEST set in BIOS instead of UTC. Guixsd added 2 hours so the offset was exceeded. So this was a reason. I think. > > > Also in Xfce DE Clock.
