    Change clock from 07:24PM to 19:24

    As title says.

    Very annoying, on the panel it says 07:24 PM.

    I want it to be the good old 24 hour system, so the result would be 19:24 instead.

    How to do this? Cant find anything in Digital Clock Settings or in Adjust date and Time.

    In Adjust date and Time I get a display of a clock, where it is the way I want, there it says "19:00", but when closing it, it still says 07:00 PM on the panel! :C

    On panel right click on date. Select Preferences. Select 24 hour format and click close. That should do it.

    Right click on the time, and select preferences. Then select 24 hour time.

    Here is a sample snapshot:


    I can not find any "Preferences" or some way to configure it like the clock in the window. :C

    Ummh...

    12:27 AM. That does not even exist haha. :S Is it a bug? AM/PM is only suppose to count to 12 and reset. And the 24 hour system should start with 00:27 like it is displayed inside the configuration window.

    In the start menu, there is no "Administration" button in the "System" category.

    I don't see anything either, that's odd.
