Hello
The time on my desktop is set to UTC. I'll like to read it EST. Is there
something as simple as dpkg-reconfigure timezone ? I remember older debian
used to have base-config; what is it replaced with in the current debian
4(64 studio). I know libc6 is involve, but I am not sure how to tell it to
set my local timezone as EST. I installed datetimeconf, but it give the
error:
~$ sudo datetimeconf
Location map: /usr/share/datetimeconf/pixmaps/map480.png
Location green cross: /usr/share/datetimeconf/pixmaps/cross-green.png
Location red cross: /usr/share/datetimeconf/pixmaps/cross-red.png
Error: Can't read zone info, exitting
Also, time-admin consistently crashes. here is my latest crash report:
