Comment 4 for bug 692597

Hello,
My experience is that U1 v2 doesn't work on my work's Windows XP only PC (I once tried to install Ubuntu on it and it disabled XP to my embarrassment before IT). The problem with U1 seems related to the time zones as soon as I leave home on a travel.
Regards,

Subject: [Bug 692597] Re: If the user has the date/time/timezone wrong, connection fails (Expired timestamp error)

Good to see some progress on this bug.

This error is shown when dual booting Windows and Ubuntu.
Since Ubuntu and Windows use different methods to manage the local time (and thus interfering), every time windows is booted, after using ubuntu, U1 can't connect because the local time is delayed by an hour.
