I have a desktop PC with Fedora, Ubuntu and Windows installed and grub used for multibooting. But time in Fedora is always 5 hours behind. If I change the time in Fedora, then Windows and Ubuntu will be 5 hours ahead of the current time. I don't understand how to fix it.

Any ideas? All the timezone settings in Fedora, Ubuntu and Windows are the same.

You use UTC instead of localtime or vica versa (in Fedora that is).

Check /etc/sysconfig/clock for settings. (use sudo gedit /etc/sysconfig/clock)

Oh, there is a cute howto also: http://fadvisor.net/blog/2008/06/fedora-9-and-utclocaltime-time-problem/

I fixed this problem in Fedora 12 by choosing System | Administration | Date & Time | Time Zone, unticking 'System clock uses UTC' and then adjusting the time correctly.
