That's probably the reason why changing the clock to 24H reporting in your account which has a role as administrator is not reflected to the clock present in GDM. I'm not so sure why you want to allow each user to change the time/clock settings et all that should just be handled by the administrator from my perspective. > > > One thing that are tied to those settings that it's hard to > different > > when your are being asked to provide the root password or the logged > in > > user password or the "Administrator" password. > > That's a very fair point. File it upstream please. You do realize that if I wanted to participate upstream in any way or form we would be having that discussion there not on this list and that applies probably to most Fedora community members since most if not all of us are very capable of joining and participating in the upstream community's chooses we do so and that's something the Desktop team seems to be having trouble to understand and or grasp since you( as in the Desktop team ) are pushing the upstream Gnome bit strongly on Fedora community these days or so it seems... Speaking for myself I have chosen to settle on participating in one community and that community is the Fedora community and even if I wanted to be a part of more then one community I simply don't have the time and even if I did have the time my first choice would not be the Gnome community due to various reasons.
