Hi everyone.
Well I haven't tried the English version of Ubuntu 9.04 yet but
yesterday installed and full patched the beta 5 in spanish in
VirtualBox. As you can guess, I visited several know issues from
previous versions of Ubuntu. The first I did was click in the date and
take a look to the time and date options. With surprise, I found that in
9.04 you CAN'T change the time to whatever you like but you are forced
with the 24 hours format.
This is a very old bug affecting -still- Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 (please
check 222220). It only affects Spanish languages. Well, before you had
the check-mark (It doesn't work but you have it). Now, in 9.04 it's gone
and you are forced to use just one. Please, the fix for this is SO EASY
that if I knew some about C programming, I would fix it myself. The more
I think, the less I can understand WHY the time format can't be free
because at the end it's nothing but personal taste.
Regards.
Turbo.
