pc clocks are terrible time keepers, changing your
battery most likely won't help. Instead, look at
syncing your clock to a time server when your logged
on. I've run several Redhat based distros and this was
easily configured at install, so I never tried
afterwards. Someone else can probably supply the
steps. I've recently moved to Debian and haven't set
that up yet, anyone wan't to shoot me a clue on it?
