A curious peculiarly of th eplasma time is that it really wants /etc/localtime 
to be a symlink.  We do not do that in LFS because we still support a separate 
/usr partition and the symlink will throw off timestamps during boot, at least 
until /usr is mounted.

Most people today do not have a separate /usr, so for plasma try changing 
/etc/localtime to a symlink to the appropriate value in /usr/share/zoneinfo/.

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for the tip! With the symlink, KDE now correctly detects my local time zone.

However the ugly message I was speaking about is still there:
when adjusting date and time as a normal user, when applying the modification, I get an error window: "Error - KDE Control Module Unable to authenticate/execute the action: 3, Tried to start an invalid
action"

I think it should be a window asking for the root password instead.

Maybe it is linked to another strange thing: in System settings, Account Details/User manager, my default account is not listed... If anyone has an idea...

Pierre
