How Do I change Date Time on N810
 

I've been trying to change the date and time on a Nokia N810. No matter what I do, it doesn't reflect it on the desktop clock.

Any ideas? TIA

Have you gone into Settings>Control Panel>Date and time
selected your home city and put your local time?

Also click on the Clock widget and be sure that the Business icon is on top of your home city on the map.

If that doesn't work, well we'd like some screenshots (load applet has this functionality)

Yes. No matter what I do there, it doesn't update the clock.

I had to go into shell as root and use the date command. This is what I did:

su root
<root password>

date <time and date format as below>

Setting the system clock
To set the system clock under Linux, use the date command. As an example, to set the current time and date to July 31, 11:16pm, type ``date 07312316'' (note that the time is given in 24 hour notation). If you wanted to change the year as well, you could type ``date 073123161998''. To set the seconds as well, type ``date 07312316.30'' or ``date 073123161998.30''. To see what Linux thinks the current local time is, run date with no arguments.

Thanks for helping me.

Question:

Since the default root password is null, did I cause this problem by changing the root password?
