Time setting problem

[Dan Ciarniello]

I have installed the F10 KDE live cd on a USB stick using the 
livecd-iso-to disk utility.  I also added an overlay for persistence.

I have run in to a problem in setting the time.  There are two scenarios 
but I am not sure whether they are related.

1. When using the Date/Time settings tool to change the time zone, the 
new time zoning setting does not immediately take effect even though the 
tool shows that it is contacting an NTP server.  The time does not 
actually change until a few minutes later.

2. When I reboot the system, the initially displayed time is incorrect. 
  After three or four minutes, the time resets to the correct value. 
I've looked in /var/log/messages and it looks like ntp comes up and 
tries to contact a time server before the network comes up.  It then 
retries a few minutes later by which time the network is up and a time 
server is available.

The second scenario looks like it might be related to the new faster 
booting in that things are done in the wrong order but what about the 
first?  Is this just an issue related to the live CD?  I am thinking 
about filing a bug but I would like some feedback from the list before I 
do so.

Thanks,
Dan.
