I was able to solve all problems by changing the content of
/etc/default/locale from what I had it: "C", to: "C.UTF-8". This solved
these problems:
1) The original problem of the clock not working when I wanted to
display the day-of-the-week and year on the top line menu bar (in
"System Settings", then "Time & Date" -- see above);
2) When I would change the locale to: "en_US.utf8", it would let the
clock work OK, but would also change the sort collating sequence (for
instance, in the "ls -l" command) to what I wasn't accustomed to.
All I did was change the locale to: "C.UTF-8", and rebooted. That
solves the clock problem, and keeps the sort collating sequence that I
want.
Though, it appears to me there is still a problem in Ubuntu ... as what
I was originally using as a locale: "C" -- it shows up as a valid locale
when I do a "locale -a" command.
So, I'm OK with how it works now, but I'm going to leave this report
OPEN in hopes that someone on the bug-tracking team will read this.
