Bug Description

7.04beta LiveCD - default timezone was incorrect.
Once I changed the timezone, the clock in the top panel did not change to reflect the timezone change.
It did update correctly once I manually adjusted the display to UTC and then back to non-UTC.

Thank you for your bug. Do you display the seconds? Does it update the hour when the clock change (next minute if you don't have seconds there)?

Sebastien, I can confirm this. While at UDS I made repeated timezone changes until realizing it's only updated when the time advances to the next minute.
