I have the latest firmware and now the desktop clock shows the wrong time, 3 hours ahead. It's 23:03 here now, but the clock shows 02:03 tomorrow morning.

Everything is correctly set in the Date & Time application, and I even set Home city and Destination city to be the same.

Any clues, anyone?

Read the thread about the update...towards the end. There's a fix there for you.

The zoneinfo directory only contains one location / local on the 770 in the latest firmware.

Mhm. I'd expect this to be fixed be Nokia. While it's technically possible to use the workaround, Nokia cannot seriously expect an average customer to go through the procedure. Especially because becoming root on the 770 is not officially supported by Nokia, but necessary for this workaround.

Yes, I'd be surprised if within a couple of weeks (at most) there wasn't another firmware update fixing this bug.

Was a bug-report ever filed?

I agree, you would think something like time zone settings would be checked for before release. Hopefully they will release an "update to the update" soon.

Maybe even with **GASP** a changelog.

I'm more of an average customer, than one with root access and command line as only mode of operation. And I don't have Linux or Mac OS.

Ahhh, but reading the posts in InternetTabletTalk, becoming a member, and posting brings you above the average "Joe Consumer" level. You make a valid point, the average conusmer will not be mucking with becoming root to fix the clock. I, however, bought the 770 strickly for this purpose. I bought it because it runs Linux, supports SSH and VNC and is great to help administer the servers I manage. In all likelyhood, the average consumer would not be flashing a new image anyway. I sure hope Nokia did not release production units with this firmware.
