To get a 24 hour clock I had to install Large Status Bar clock.

Then restart the device.

'man 1 locale' will explain all available settings. You can find the manpage online at:

If you modify http://repository.maemo.org/pool/dia...posix-locales/ , you could probably get the desired effect...

But mClock still displays am and pm, despite the python script uses 'locale' values with strftime("%X").
Maybe a separate setting in python is required ?

Report a bug against mClock. Could be a pyton bug too.

Changing the locale to Sweden would then result in all the month names and day names appearing in Swedish wouldn't it? At least this is what happened when I tried the norway locale.

Just a note for anyone else looking to do this:
Setting:
export LC_TIME=sv_SE
does set the system to yyyy-mm-dd but it also, as a side effect (well, really it's doing what it's suppose to), sets the weekday and month names to something other than English, probably Swedish.
Not that there's anything wrong with learning a bit of Swedish, but it's nice to know that before starting.
David...
P.S. Anyone know of a locale that both speaks english AND does dates the "right way" aka yyyy-mm-dd?

Until now I am unable to set the proper date / time format.
When I select English as language then I cannot set the time fiormat in 24 hour clock and cannot set in the 4 digit year format (e.g. 2009-01-01).
Then I tried to set the language to English but the region to German de_DE).
However this results in that number field do not accept the decimal point , e.g. 8.12 is considered as 8.
I found lots of configuration files ending with en_GB:
Does anyone know which file contains the definition where I can force 24 hour format and ISO 8660 date format (i.e. 2009-01-01). ?
