You can use this module to alter the system date and time, using a convienent graphical interface.
![]() | You must have system administrator ("root") access to change the system date and time. If you do not have this access level, this module will only show you the current settings. |
When you first start, you are in display mode only. To modify your settings, click on Modify. If you are logged in as root, you will go straight to the change dialog. If not, KDE will ask for a superuser password.
You set the date using the left half of the module. Simply choose your month (the drop down box at the top), year (the spin box at the top), and the day of the month (simply click on the day in the calendar).
You set the time using the spin box at the bottom of the clock. Simply click in the hour, minutes or seconds box. You can directly enter your value, or you can click on the "+" or "-" buttons to adjust that value up one value.
![]() | The time is represented in 24 hour format. If you want the system time to be set to 8:00 PM, you need to set the hour spinbox to "20" (8 + 12). If you want the system time set to 8:00 AM, you should set the hour spinbox to "8". |
You can then click on the Time Zone tab.
Simply select your new timezone from the drop down box in the middle of the screen
When you have set the correct date and time, simply click OK or Apply to make the changes permanent.
