Problem with Local Time
I love using my pcDuino V2, but i have some problems with very basics configurations. For some reason whenever i reset or turn off my pcduino it forgets my keyboard configuration and i need to add it again, also i have to set the date everytime ubuntu starts. Is there some way to get this done automatically everytime it starts?
How to Fix:
Because, there’s no RTC module on the pcDuino .so it is default time in evertime ubuntu starts. This pcduino is automatically synchronize date from network if network is working fine. but it is default time zone is GMT (Greenwich MeanTime).
If you want to use Local time , you have to change time zone:
Run blow command in the LxTerminal:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
To open Configuring tzdata :
To choose Geographic area:
Hit ” Up or Down” on the keyboard ,
Select are: “Asia” (if you’re live in Asia)
Hit “Tab” on the keyboard , press [Enter] key.
To select city : Chongqing (OR your city name )
Hit “Tab” on the keyboard , press [Enter] key.
and then:
It have change the Local time now show in the terminal:
Current default time zone: 'Asia/Chongqing' Local time is now: Thu Jun 5 14:21:48 CST 2014. Universal Time is now: Thu Jun 5 06:21:48 UTC 2014.
