I had the same problem with Slacko 5.5 and the /America/New_York time zone. The fix was the same as for duck, replacing the /America/New_York file on the HD with the original from the CD. (The files from the Slacko 5.5 CD are dated 17 Sep 2012.)duck@japan wrote:npierce,
Thank you very much! It was fixed!
I don't know what I had done in May 4, 2013.
As for the Tokyo file. I saved it but I cannot read that and this forum denies uploading of it.
Anyway, I'm happy now. Thank you, again!
As to the origin of my problem, I ran "Updates Manager -latest from Slackware" on the Setup menu and updated tzdata.
Since the binary tzdata files from Slackware appear to be incompatible with Slacko 5.5, perhaps a Puppy specific tzdata set is needed. This matter I leave to the Puppy experts, with appreciation and thanks for all their contributions.
