Techniques: Software: Operating Systems: Linux Template:stub

Useful Commands

  • lspci - lists all PCI devices found

Miscellaneous Fixes

  • Time Zone: If the KDE Clock-setting widget seems to be

refusing to set the time zone (or your system clock is refusing to show anything except GMT time), this command may work: ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/NewYork /etc/localtime ...where "/America/NewYork" should be replaced by the appropriate file for your time zone. I have not been able to find any documentation on this feature; the command was suggested to me by someone on the #kde forum at irc.freenode.net (see [1]). Remember to use the console "date" command to verify what the system clock is currently set to. --Woozle 08:45, 23 Apr 2005 (CST)
