    time problem

    I have set my time to manual and the 12hour format.
    But the time shows as 9:30AM even though I enter 21:30

    you need to set it to 24h format to get it to display as 21:30... i am just guessing, but are you trying to set your clock in gnome? kde? xfce? fluxbox? it would be helpful to know

    Such changes require X to reboot.

    Hit Ctrl + Alt + Backspace.

    Seems kinda odd - you wouldn't be 12 hours offset to GMT (UTC), would you?
