When I use the QTerminal application, I get the following:
debian@beaglebone:~$ dpkg-reconfigure tzdata bash: dpkg-reconfigure: command not found debian@beaglebone:~$ which dpkg-reconfigure debian@beaglebone:~$ sudo which dpkg-reconfigure /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure When I use the a text or serial console I get the following: debian@beaglebone:~$ dpkg-reconfigure tzdata /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure must be run as root debian@beaglebone:~$ which dpkg-reconfigure /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure I had originally tried using a QTerminal, and it looked like it wasn't installed. Using sudo I can see that it is. Why do the different consoles produce different results? I suspect it is a login shell vs a non-login shell thing again.
