Clock shifts by two hours when my laptop sleeps

I had to reinstall Tumbleweed recently, and I think I made a bad choice in the installer when asked if my BIOS clock was UTC or not. Honestly, at the time, I wasn't sure.

When I boot my laptop, the clock is usually correct, but when I get back from lunch it shows 2 hours later than it really is. My timezone is UTC+2.

How do I fix this?

Wild guess, maybe YaST actually has a section for that.

But i'm sure you can correct the hardware clock and or tell your system what to save there.

I've been running slackware forever, and this situation often comes up; I admit it may have happened to me more than once!

It's Slackware Specific

however, it may provide insight as to correcting your issue.
