Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
Hi there,
First of all I did not want UTC & have local time on my desktop.
While I did this at setting up somehow the values were not stored/taken etc.
Then I tried also changing through the right-click Preferences also proved
ineffective, Then somebody on IRC advised me to go through some /etc/ some
file (do not remember) & commented out UTC there which proved to have local
time. I use local time as I have 2 OSes & the local time is given in the BIOS
clock. Due to events such as bug #104091 i have had to change the time. To
change the time I have to right click the clock, choose Adjust time & date
which in turn shows the time-admin enter my user password, which shows my
time-zone (Asia, Calcutta) , Configuation (Manual) . While I can change the
hr. by just entering the no. I cannot use the minute . I have to use the up &
down arrow key to do that. After doing that, there is no ok there, so I just
hit enter & close it. The time meanwhile does not change in the time-applet and
the only way I can see the time-change is through removing the clock from the
gnome-panel. Then again adding clock to the gnome-panel (but this loses my
preferences which I have done as a 24 hr. thing rather than 12 hr.) . I thought
somebody might have reported it but seems nobody has hence reporting it. I did
see somebody reporting it in herd 1 way back, hence was confused whether to add
my stuff there or make a new bug. In the end decided to do the later. Lemme
know if you need more info. Thanx for your time.
