It's been wrong for quite a while but had bigger problems and didn't really bother. Now, finally, I got Arch running nice with most stuf working fine so I want to fix my clock. Iv'e tr ied setting it to "Europe/Stockholm" which made it two hours later when I want it like 8 hours earlier. I also saw there was an "GMT-0" option so I tried a GMT-8 without success. It only changed it 2 hours. I have "localtime" set. What can I do?

I found this online: http://www.linuxsa.org.au/tips/time.html
try this (taken from the site)
# Run ``date MMDDhhmm'' to set the current system date/time.
# Type ``/sbin/hwclock --systohc [--utc]'' to set the hardware clock.

Thanks. Working perfectly!

if you have localtime in rc.conf you'll want the hwclock line to be --localtime instead of --utc, otherwise when you reboot it'll be way off. But I would recommend using utc anyways unless you dual boot with windows.

I use "localtime" even without dual-booting, because every LiveCD I know uses that 'hwclock --localtime' line.
