Postby rmcellig on Mon Dec 05, 2011 9:39 am

I am using mint 11 LXDE and noticed that my time is wrong. How do I change the time zone?
Take care,

Linux Mint is funded by ads and donations.

Open Preferences from the Mint Menu and click on Time and Date. Change the options there.
A fact is a simple statement that everyone believes. It is innocent, unless found guilty. A hypothesis is a novel suggestion that no one wants to believe. It is guilty, until found effective.

I am in LXDE and I don't see Time and Date when I select the Preferences menu.

Install gnome-time-admin, and use sudo time-admin in the terminal to launch it, or launch from run by searching for time-admin.
