I want to change with a command to:
Sun Dec 12 22:04:00 ICT 2010
but the command need only works on the date, the time need no to be modified. How can I do it?
I am trying to sync the time on my Centos 5 box, but I do not want to sync the date. All of our servers need to have the clocks synced, but one system needs to have the date set to the previous day.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI set my location, but Debian displays DATE in some messed format. I would expect such neat OS to recognize all those local settings based on my location, but that's not the case. It seems that Debian follows locale settings by set language (which is en_us in my case, as I guess in majority uses) or this format is default in any case
I would like to set date/time to DD.MM.YY. hh:mm:ss, and programs that display date data to follow this setting. Simply put, in Windows there is Control Panel and you set location, then OS uses some regional settings, like currency, separators, date/time format.
In the past, I just edited the /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/dateMenu.js file to alter the date and time format. Today when I tried that, it crashed GNOME Shell and wouldn't let it start..

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using Grub4Dos to boot Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop Live CD. In the menu.lst i made the following changes.
Quote:
title Ubuntu LiveCD 9.10
find --set-root /ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso
map /ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso (0xff)
map --hook
root (0xff)
[Code]....
The code runs fine and Ubuntu loads also from the ISO stored in the C: drive of my system.
The problem is when Ubuntu loads it changes my clock time. I have set the timezone to Indian Standard Time. Since it is live CD it should not make any changes in the system however, it does change the Data/Time of my system.
I have the application and kernel module running on my system. In the meantime, I am changing the date and time of the system. However, this change doesn't reflect on log messages of the application that's being executed.

I'd like to change a files modification date "only" without changing the time. I'm aware of the 'touch' command but is seems like it only allows changing both the date and time, and not one of them. Any ideas on an easy way to change a file's modification date without also changing its time? (I have a long list of files and thus would like to run one to command to change them all)Example: Change a file's (month) timestamp from "2010-09-23 11:59:23" to "2010-10-23 11:59:23"Background: I accidentally set the wrong month on my camera and ended up with all photos having a modification timestamp with the wrong month.

View 1 Replies View RelatedCan one perform an installation of CentOS 5 (5.4) so that the system is up-to-date at the time of the first boot (i.e. Anaconda will pull and install the 'latest' versions of the packages directly, and the user needn't run `yum update` | `yum upgrade` after the system has been installed)?
If this is doable at all, is it possible to accomplish without making use of a personally custom-crafted-and-hosted repository (i.e. can one of the official CentOS mirrors be used)?
Also, I'm not talking about creating an install DVD containing the latest versions of the packages, but rather, if the netinstall media can be used to perform this particular type of installation.
I must be able to perform customized (non distribution-default) (re)installations of Linux fairly often. As such, I have been looking for a distribution which would allow me to automate the process. CentOS's usage of the Anaconda installer permitting the use of kickstart files, coupled with its stability, maturity, etc. seems to be what I have been looking for. I would like to be able to use the netinstall media in order to perform up-to-date kickstart installations (i.e. grab the 'latest' updates targeting CentOS 5, rather than installing the 5.4 versions and upgrading the system after the first boot).
The wiki seems to provide instructions on creating up-to-date media. However; this is less than ideal, because it would mean burning new media every time I need to (re)install. I realize that finding out if this is possible or not is a simple matter of grabbing the netinstall ISO, burning it and seeing if it supports a direct up-to-date install (or not). However, this is where I run into another problem. The machine in question uses a broadcom wireless card and, as such, would have to make use of it during the installation. I can get the card to work properly on an installed system via the bcm43xx kernel module + 3rd party firmware (extracted to /lib/firmware/ via bcm43xx-fwcutter).
I do not know if it is possible to modify the netinstall ISO so as to load this module (and the modules it depends on) automatically -and- somehow add the necessary files to /lib/firmware/. To summarize (in hopes of clarifying if the long version is confusing) :
1. Can the netinstall media be used to directly install an up-dated system?
2. Can the netinstall media be reworked in order to automatically load the bcm43xx module and can the firmware files be added to the /lib/firmware/ directory of the.. system booted from the media?
I was following these instructions[url] and it asks to have this installed yet I am unable to find the file/package.

I've got fedora 11 set up to use network time protocol to sync my laptop's date & time when I'm on-line. The question is simple really, I've added a local universality's time server (what is public) and it's live. but it's added to the end of the default time servers what come with fedora. How do I get fedora to just use the local time server, is it a case of removing the default time servers for fedora, but there is a box what says advanced options which are. sync system clock before starting service ???? & use Local time source (( is that the same as the local ntp server that I've got set up ))Hope some body can help me with the network time protocol part of Date/Time settings.
