[yak8998  files]$

and nothign works right...
but than if I

[yak8998  files]$ tar xfjm Azureus_2.0.8.4_linux.GTK.tar.bz2

it works fine...
I'm thinking this might have to do with the system clock, except in FreeBSD and the BIOS the date/time is correct.

Re: time-stamp problem with tar

I'm guessing your system clock is wrong in Arch.  Type "date" and see if it's the right time... and check /etc/rc.conf to make sure you have HARDWARECLOCK and TIMEZONE set right.
