He's using the GNOME Control Center time applet, not time-admin. I think the issue is that it's not very obvious that you can't change time, but only timezone when you're not authenticated. So you need to unroll Locations, click Modify, and then click Set Time, and then again Set System Time. Another way is right click, Preferences, Set Time, Set System Time.
Maybe we should be more explicit about how this works. This can be very confusing since people don't usually think in terms of: "I'm on time zone UTC+1 so I need to set my system clock to UTC, then my timezone to XXX." ** Package changed: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) => gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) -- Adjust Date & Time does not work for hours https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432125 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
