What happened to system-config-date?
I just installed F28 (jumped from F24), and am trying to find how I control things like what time zone I am in? Always used the gui system-config-date...
thanks
The trend has been to move away from the Redhat GUI tools and to rely on each individual desktop to have their own app...
Are you running Gnome, KDE or one of the others?
Thanks, Richard

And system-config-printer replacement? I installed that so I could get printing to my HP8600 going easily.
thanks

system-config-printer (still) exists (and it's not going away in the near future)

This is replaced by timedatectl

Command line is good, but GUI is better for all the traveling I do.
Or does this have a gui that I never noticed?
thanks

If you have the clock widget in your panel, right click it, select "Properties" and you can put in your time zone.
If you've installed the system-config-date RPM, you could click Applications-> Administration-> System-Config-Date
If you don't have the polkit issues, you'll get a popup to authenticate, then you can select a timezone.
If you don't have that in your Applications menu, open a console and as root, enter "system-config-date" (again, if you've installed the RPM).
Or you can run "tzselect" (as root). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@alldigital.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Never eat anything larger than your head - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

You have to know your timezones, though it does bring up the choices as you type.
But no setting ntp or turning off ntp.
If you've installed the system-config-date RPM, you could click Applications-> Administration-> System-Config-Date
If you don't have the polkit issues, you'll get a popup to authenticate, then you can select a timezone.
That is the whole question. I guess whatprovides? system-config-date is not in the F28 repo.
If you don't have that in your Applications menu, open a console and as root, enter "system-config-date" (again, if you've installed the RPM).
See above.
Or you can run "tzselect" (as root).

The gui on this was nice. I could bring up the map and find a city near where I landed. Of course you can always just go by timezone. There are a lot of major cities not in the list.
Interestingly, the gui was there in the install for selecting the default timezone.

That is a good one: it does not. Bur I am more of a CLI user so I never realized this limitation. If you are using Gnome, you may try settings -> details - Date & time I never used it, but it may do what you want...

I use cli on my fedora-arm systems. But my notebook uses Xfce.

Xfce,..
