Dear all, 

system time is behind 5 hours, when booting livecd
time is correct, and windows also, but in Fedora it is
behind 5 hours.  I had ntpd to have time correct, but
somehow it did not correct the time, upon trying to
change date via panel, I was greeted with 


Summary:

SELinux is preventing gnome-clock-app (gnomeclock_t)
"sys_nice" to <Unknown>
(gnomeclock_t).

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by gnome-clock-app. It
is not expected that this
access is required by gnome-clock-app and this access
may signal an intrusion
attempt. It is also possible that the specific version
or configuration of the
application is causing it to require additional
access.

Allowing Access:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this
access - see FAQ
(http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385)
Or you can disable
SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux
protection is not recommended.
Please file a bug report
(http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
against this package.
