Ouch!  Your config includes the ntp daemon.  Could it be that it=E2=80=99s
misbehaving?

You can remove it along the lines of:

  (define %my-desktop-services
    (remove (lambda (service)
              (eq? (service-kind service) ntp-service-type))
            %desktop-services))

Well, you need to export =E2=80=98ntp-service-type=E2=80=99 from (gnu servi=
ces
networking) first=E2=80=A6

Other than that, I have no idea what could be resetting the hardware
clock to 0.

HTH,
