Gnome Clock
The gnome clock applet's weather fuction is currently showing the temperature in Orlando, FL (OIA) is 84F. Outside my house the thermometer says it is 60F. The weather channel is reporting 59F.

Has this happened to somebody else? gnome-system-tools are run using gksu, when run from the clock applet it uses the built in function to ask for root password[0]. I'm not sure if this is what's causing your problems, but you could try running time-admin using gksu. A more likely guess is that you're bitten by bug 418513 which should be fixed now, look for an updated package in incoming. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=418513 0. I think this is fixed in the newer releases, they should be available in Debian quite soon. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Time/Date via Gnome clock app (sid)
Hi. I've set up my primary sid desktop to update time with NTP via the Gnome clock application. Now it seems that the NTP server has gone offline and the displayed time has a -5min difference with the real one. I wanted to use the servers pool instead but I can't access the menu. Every time I try to obtain privileges the password is rejected and I typed it in enough times to be sure it's the correct one.. This happens only with the Time/Date app, everything else works perfectly (synaptic, disks, gparted, ..) . Has this happened to somebody else?

Using GNOME from Experimental, it happens to me to. :( But... it doesn't matter to me since I run ntpdate from cron every few hours. Keeps the system time correct even if no one is logged in. I suggest you try ntpdate or ntp, which continuously keeps the clock correct. - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day.

Uhrzeit in Gnome clock-applet als User einstellen
Servus, wo kann ich einem User das Recht geben mit dem clock-applet die Uhrzeit einzustellen? Wenn ich das mit Userrechten versuche, kommt ein Dialog das zum Ändern der Uhrzeit root Rechte benötigt werden und es wird nach dem Passwort gefragt. Nun soll der User aber nicht das root Passwort bekommen. Ein Abgleich mittels Zeitserver ist nicht praktikabel, da es sich um ein Notebook handelt was recht selten Internetzugang hat. danke Frank -- Pls wrt in prpr englsh so we cn undrstnd wht ur tlkng abt.
