System Clock Synchronized: No

Ikon

What should I do to make the system clock synchronize?
And where is the location of "timesyncd.conf" in Solus Budgie?

Ikon What should I do to make the system clock synchronize?

It's not exactly obvious in Budgie, but if you click on this display in the system menu ...

It takes you to the Date & Time section of the System Settings.

Let me know if you don't fine what you need there.

Ikon On my Solus I only found the man pages,
/usr/share/man/man5/timesyncd.conf.5 /usr/share/man/man5/timesyncd.conf.d.5

In the Date & Time section of the system settings, mine is already on Automatic Date & Time and in the correct Region.
What I would like to do is when I input the timedatectl command, the result would be "System Clock Synchronized: YES"
How could I do that?

Solus uses systemd-timesyncd for automatically sync'ing the time. You can check it with

sudo systemctl status systemd-timesyncd

The easiest way to get time to auto sync is to use the tray icon, as suggested, or go to system settings for date and time.

I thinks I need to edit the timesyncd.conf but I can't find its location.
I might need to change NTP server in timesyncd.conf.

[Time]
NTP=ur.ntp.srv
FallbackNTP=ur.fallbackntp.srv

Sorry, I don't have an answer for that. Maybe a Budgie user here in the forum will be able to help you more. (I'm a Plasma user.)

I re-install my Solus Budgie 4.4. Without installing yet the updates, I have verified that the file timesynd.conf is located at /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf and I have edited the said file.

And the system time is now in sync.

After applying all the software/system updates the file timesyncd.conf is not in the /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf anymore.

Oh yeah, seems like the file was removed with this update

Do you know where is the new location of the timesyncd.conf after the latest updates?

Ikon You can create either create /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf again (it still works, just isn't provided by default anymore), or create /etc/systemd/timesyncd.d/local.conf (both the directory and the file) and add your configuration changes.
