Hi,

Please excuse me if this sounds stupid, but I need to change the time displayed in the task bar from a 24 hour clock to a 12 hour format. I could not find the relevant settings in OpenSuse 11.2 and same is the case for 11.3 as well.

Can somebody tell me how to make the change? I have tried System Settings —> Computer Administration —> Date & Time; but I was not able to make the desired change.

Similarly, I have a digital clock widget that shows GMT + 5.5 hours and I need to change that to 12 hour format as well.
