Created attachment 30689 [details] [review] Patch file for the file "Clock.c". This will solve all the problems which is related to the CLOCK APPLET. A good method to solve the clock problems like Bug 111271: clock applet dosn't refresh the date Bug 133535: Clock doesn't notice if I change the system clock Bug 140016: Time changes are not being refelected properly in the panel ------------- Redhat Date config tool is not a part of the CLOCK Applet. This patch will check whether the date/time has been changed using "redhat-config-date"(Clock menu->Adjust Date and Time). If any modification found, the new date/time will be displayed immediatly.
Mark: does the new glibc fix this too?
No, its not related. But I can't personally reproduce Aaron's problem. Aaron: how exactly did you change the time?
why is this bug a needinfo one ?
Sebastien: It's NEEDINFO because Mark can not reproduce the problem and asks a question :-) Can you reproduce?
run time-admin, change the timezone from the current one to a different one. The panel clock doesn't change but the system clock is correct.
Sebastien: the "timezone change" bug is fixed with newer glibc. See bug #19197. I'm closing the bug as we did not get more informations. Please reopen if you have more.
