FreeBSD's orignal /bin/date reports correct, but /compat/linux/bin/date reported different. I have downgraded Linux compat back to 2.4 and linux_base-fc4 stuff, now I have this: ---------------------------------- # /bin/date Tue Oct 21 01:03:20 CDT 2008 # /compat/linux/bin/date Tue Oct 21 01:03:23 CDT 2008 ---------------------------------- Which is correct. So.. Must be either a bug in Linux compat 2.6.16 or linux_base-f8 or it's new that I have to configure in /compat/linux/* for time stuff?
