The PS3 has an RTC which cannot be set.  Both the game os and other os
use an RTC offset.

To view a copy of the game os offset use 'ps3-flash-util --game-time'.

To set the game os offset, use the game os.

To set the other os (linux) offset to the game os offset use
'ps3-rtc-init --force'.

To be able to set the RTC offset your kernel must have the PS3 RTC
support module loaded or built in to the kernel.
