[Nottingham] Time zone confusion

[Ashley]

The timestamps are the same on the old disk so the file transfer was ok.
After various checks I have decided that the timezone behaves as expected
and samba also behaves correctly.  The anomaly is the time as read off the
FAT16 CF card when it is in the PCMCIA adaptor, but I don't understand why.
The timestamp on the CF card appears to be wrong according ls regardless of
the time zone.

This photograph was actually taken at 20:19...

[changed timezone to GMT]

I tried restarting the pcmcia driver after changing the timezone.  The only
thing I have not tried is to reboot after changing the timezone.

Can you figure out what I am missing?

Thanks,
Ashley
