time-admin works here. I do not think you have/should use sudo to run time-admin.

You have to add your user to the stb-admin group:

# gpasswd -a user stb-admin

Also, you have to start the stbd daemon:

# /etc/rc.d/stbd start

Add it to your rc.conf file.

You did this?

Yes I did everything, I tried to reinstall it too. ANd tried to launch it in gdb also.
But I always get the error.

It doesnt work with or without sudo, I tried both

PS: the other stb tools work nicely

I installed gnome-system-tools and system-tools-backends again in a virtual box and time-admin works.
Do you have dbus running? Is there any information in logs?
Are you able to adjust date and time from GNOME clock?

Can someone else confirm this too?

hm, "illegal hardware instruction" sounds unusual.
What CPU and kernel version are you using?
Comment by Cedric GESTES (ctaf) - Saturday, 19 January 2008, 13:17 GMT
yes I have dbus and hal running. (only hal in rc.conf)

I cant adjust date and time from the gnome-panel. The dialog never show.
but openntpd work.

my cpu: athlon xp 2000+.
kernel: 2.6.23 updated to last version from arch repo (I'am not using unstable)

I will watch the log later, and see with gdb what the asm code cause the error.
But I cant access the box now

If you cant adjust date and time from the gnome-panel, then i think you have a problem with your gnome. What version are you running?
Comment by Hugo Doria (hdoria) - Wednesday, 04 June 2008, 17:43 GMT
I am closing this bug. Seens the problem was with the GNOME and not with gnome-system-tools.
