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.<snip> Darren's point is actually quite simple: check the timezone package, and you will find separate listings for Australia/Canberra and Australia/Sydney. However, KDE seems to take its zone info from /opt/kde3/share/apps/kaddressbook/zone.tab, which is not the same file at the zone.tab in the timezone package -- amongst other things, Canberra is not there.
One hastens to ask, why not? Why does KDE use its own, truncated, version of the zone.tab file, instead of using the one provided by the system? -- Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo. -- HG Wells -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
