Package: gnome-shell Version: 2.28.1~git20091125-1 Severity: normal gnome-shell displays a clock at the top of the screen. However, it always displays in the format "Thu 11:02 PM". There appears to be no way to change how it displays. I have my computer clock and timezone set to UTC, even though I don't live there. It is significantly less useful to have a clock that displays AM/PM rather than 24-hour time in my situation; "23:02" is more meaningful than "11:02 PM". I also really prefer to have seconds available; then I can set my watch to the computer time (which is synced with NTP).
Please provide a clock that is configurable at least to the degree that the normal gnome-panel one is, and please allow it to be added, moved, or removed as the user sees fit[0]. [0] Yes, I noticed the one on the left side of the screen; that isn't normally viewable (except as a 12-hour analog clock) so it isn't sufficient. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-shell depends on: ii gconf2 2.28.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii gir1.0-clutter-1.0 1.0.8-1 GObject introspection data for the ii gir1.0-freedesktop 0.6.5-4 Introspection data for some FreeDe ii gir1.0-glib-2.0 0.6.5-4 Introspection data for GLib, GObje ii gir1.0-gtk-2.0 0.6.5-3 GObject introspection data for the ii gir1.0-mutter-2.28 2.28.1~git20091024-1 GObject introspection data for Mut ii libatk1.0-0 1.28.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.8-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.0.8-1 Open GL based interactive canvas l ii libcroco3 0.6.2-1 a generic Cascading Style Sheet (C ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.82-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-4 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgconf2-4 2.28.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgirepository1.0- 0.6.5-4 Library for handling GObject intro ii libgjs0 0.4-3 Mozilla-based javascript bindings ii libgl1-mesa-glx [li 7.6-1 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.2-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2- 2.28.1-3 Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnome-menu2 2.28.0.1-1 an implementation of the freedeskt ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.25-3 Core GStreamer libraries and eleme ii libgtk2.0-0 2.18.3-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libmozjs2d 1.9.1.5-2 The Mozilla SpiderMonkey JavaScrip ii libnspr4-0d 4.8.2-1 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libpango1.0-0 1.26.1-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii librsvg2-2 2.26.0-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG ii libstartup-notifica 0.10-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libx11-6 2:1.3.2-1 X11 client-side library ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.1-1 X11 Composite extension library ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.2-1 X11 damaged region extension libra ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxml2 2.7.6.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii mesa-utils 7.6-1 Miscellaneous Mesa GL utilities ii mutter 2.28.1~git20091024-1 lightweight GTK+ window manager ii pkg-config 0.22-1 manage compile and link flags for ii python 2.5.4-3 An interactive high-level object-o ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-15 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnome-shell recommends: ii xserver-xephyr 2:1.6.5-1 nested X server gnome-shell suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 713 440 7475 | http://crustytoothpaste.ath.cx/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
