Notes
-
The "Time Zone" setup is very primitive !
-
It doesn't affect your system configuration !
-
See the set_tzone.sh shell on .../kde/bin directory for more info.
-
kcmclock requires KDE beta4 and qt library version 1.33 or later.
-
If you have any trouble to change system time & date, check out the
set_dtime.sh shell on .../kde/bin directory.
-
If you have any trouble to change system time zone, check out the set_tzone.sh
