The locale used doesn't necessarily have to determine how the clock looks, I'd consider it more of a default. If you use GNOME, right-click the clock in the panel -> Preferences -> Clock type 24/12 hour. The file manager (Nautilus) is infamous for not having many visible settings you can change, but it too has a setting for the time format. On a controlled platform like ours it could easily be a single system wide setting. Regards, Tomas
