Hi,

You can manually update the TZ database… see ‘TID 3655154’  
([http://www.novell.com/support/viewContent.do?externalId=3655154&sliceId=1](http://www.novell.com/support/viewContent.do?externalId=3655154&sliceId=1))  
which touches on most of the major pieces. In fact, if you have  
another SuSE system which is working properly ( perhaps SLE 10 ) you can  
the version of the files in /usr/share/zoneinfo that work.
