My apologies for what must be a stupid question.

When I use 'ls -l' the date field sometimes appears in this form :
Dec 30  2004
and sometimes in this form :
Dec 30 08:49

ls seems to choose randomly, and will choose differently for each run.

What am I missing, and how do I get it to always use the second form above?

Many thanks for any help,
adj

P.S.

ls --version
ls (coreutils) 5.0
