The KDE 4.3 System Settings – Part 3 – Computer Administration

“Welcome to part 3 of our overview of the KDE 4.3 System
Settings panel, the replacement for the old control panel of KDE
3.5. Today we’re going to look at the Computer Administration
master section. This will be a key area for those wanting to
administer their own section. So sit back, pay attention, and
enjoy.

“Date & Time

“The Date & Time section is almost spot on identical to the
configuration you’d get if you were to right click on the clock in
the system tray, and tell it to “Adjust Date & Time”. In this
window you can adjust, well, the date and time. I guess I can’t say
it really any simpler than that. You can also choose your time zone
based on your location, and you can tell KDE to just set it for you
automatically. That’s what I do and it works best. Just be sure you
have the right time zone set, or you could end up having your
computer display a rather funny time.

“Display

“The Display section controls the more physical aspects of your
display, such as resolution, multiple monitors and the like. It
contains three sections: Size & Orientation, Power Control and
Multiple Monitors.”
