The only option I'm aware of on the (GDM) login screen is to display times in 24-hour format. You can configure this using the GDM Setup tool (Red Hat Menu->System Settings->Login Screen) by checking the "Always use 24 hour clock format" option, or in the GDM configuration file (/etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf) by setting "Use24Clock" to true. You can change the GNOME panel Clock applet's settings by secondary clicking on it in the panel and selecting the Preferences... menu item. Again, the only option visible is to toggle 24-hour time display. If better internationalization is your aim, you might like to consider using the KDE display manager (kdm) in place of the GNOME display manager (gdm).
