I have several operative systems on disk partitions.
With the hour change to European Summertime days ago,
Fedora16 and OpenSUSE are 1 hour less than the right time,
the other OSs (Ubuntus,Debian,Solaris etc. are OK).
On Fedora16 (and OpenSUSE) when I do in Terminal:
hwclock ; date ; date --utc
I get:
8:53:42 PM WEST
20:53:41 WEST
201219:53:41 WEST 2012
On Ubuntu (which presents the time OK) I get:
sudo hwclock ; date ; date --utc
Tue 03 Apr 2012 05:42:26 PM WEST -0.032786 seconds
Tue Apr 3 18:42:25 WEST 2012

Here the hardware clock equals UTC and on Fedora and OpenSUSE NOT.
More,when I fix the time on OpenSUSE and Fedora the other operative
systemstime become WRONG.
How can I fix this?

from appearance, as above arranged, when you give first "date" command,
time being displayed is with "dst"/"daylight savings time"
adjustment.
if you will, read 'man/info' files for "hwclock" and "date",
wherein
you will find displaying/setting of "time", "zone", and
"dst".
you do not mention which v/r os or desktop. with most v/r, desktop, there
will be a 'gui' for setting "system-config-services" and correcting
"dst"
irritations.
i run 'utc' for both bios/mainboard clock and system clock, and i do not
use "dst".
i run "ntpd" and see little drift from;
