how to desactivate the clock (to save battery)

[ahahah]

hello

i would like to desactivate the clock because it is never at the correct time (and i don't want to connect to wifi each time to calibrate the time) so it is useless for me.

i don't want to only hide it, but really desactivate it, to save some power battery when it is in low-power mode because i have an important consumption in this mode (but this is an other subject^^).

is it possible? thanks

hello

the clock is built into the main hardware and cannot be disabled the software clock you see isn't eating more power and won't save you more than a few seconds on the hour for updating the screen time.

it's not worth it/not possible. sorry

 

[ahahah]

ok thanks

You need to update the hardware clock. There's a thread about it somewhere

Oh ?

If someone can point it out, i'm also curious about it.

Notaz said this here

It seems if you only set the clock in xfce, the rtc is not updated.

Try setting the clock, then open a terminal and type:

sudo hwclock -uw

Ok thx.

Think it has been integrated by now.
