traveling change time how ?

[reby]

I guess it should be evident but apparently not ?  I've changed the
timezone manually on the taskbar to the new TZ  , however I see that
when I update a Template it is still using my home TZ not my current TZ


what are the steps to correctly change to a new TZ  when travelling with
Q4.0 and a laptop  please ?

I also use whonix-14


thankyou

Hi,

reby:

You should be able to change the timezone with the `timedatectl` tool in dom0.
An example to set the system timezone Europe/London:

# sudo timedatectl set-timezone 'Europe/London'

For time changes to take effect in other VMs be sure to restart them after
updating the time or perhaps there is a better that I'm unaware of.


Cheers,

In KDE you do this by R-click on clock widget and selecting "Adjust
Date and Time",or from System Settings.
On my 4.0 that *does* update the time in templates and qubes, as one
would expect. And that has always been the case. I don't know why this
wouldn't work for you, reby.
