Sorry if I'am being a pedant, but its not the timezone - that
is an offset that effects how dates and times are printed, plan9
like Unix always uses UTC for all time/date stamps. The problem is
the time in the RTC chip was wrong.

there is a recuring problem that Windows sets the RTC to localtime
whereas Unix expects it to be UTC. There is an option to timesync
to inform it if you want to continue using localtime on your RTC
(because you want to dual boot with windows).
