I need some guru to tell me what's going on, and how to fix it. I suppose I could reinstall SuSE, and go thru all the customizing things again, but I really don't want to. And who knows if it would even solve the problem?
Then you probably need to start a new thread, because most of the gurus will probably be ignoring this OT one by now. I would look at the language setup in kde or gnome (which ever you use) and of the mail program you use.

It is supposed to be what you tell it to be. You have selected "random" screensaver.
I have mentioned elsewhere, that one cannot rely on the date that that computer thinks is "today." It can be off by years either way. This evening, after the shutdown and reboot, it still knows the date and time, however.
And to that, I already advised what to do, many times in this list and elsewhere, and I told you to search for it.
