It doesn't look to me like it's just for viewing timezones, but rather for setting them.
It is only for setting the one you want your clock to show in, it is not a system wide config, only a kde wide used for viewing for its clock and date app. IOW, if you had a user who wanted to see their time, and they were from Europe, they could see their time displayed on your computer separately from you when you log in. But obviously, the computer only has one clock. That one is setup via Yast.
Does this mean that the difference between Canberra and Sydney isn't visible to other applications although it is to YaST? (They are the same timezone.) If they are the same timezone, then what difference would that be? If I were to alter the timezone with this dialog, the change would be reflected system-wide right? wrong, see above. In which case it should include the same locations as in any other configuration tool.
It is the only one for kde. It is not in competition with any other. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.2 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
