The /etc/sysconfig/clock setting effects only how time is stored
on the motherboard CMOS-clock while your system isn't running.
It has nothing to do with how applications show the time to the
user. If you double-boot your system with Windows, set
UTC=false, otherwise set UTC=true.

Check your time-zone settings. Gnome may have its own timezone
setting (I don't know, I'm a KDE user) separate from the
timezone set by /etc/localtime.
