+ <para>This tool<footnote>
+ <para>You can start this tool from the command line, by typing <emphasis role="bold">drakclock</emphasis> as root.</para>
+ </footnote> is found under the tab System in the Mageia Control Center
+ labelled <guilabel>"Manage date and time"</guilabel>. In some desktop
+ environments it is also available by a right click / Adjust date and Time
+ ... on the clock in the system tray.</para>
+
+ <para>It's a very simple tool.</para>
+
+ <para>On the upper left part, is the <emphasis role="bold">calendar</emphasis>. On the screenshot above, the date is
+ September (on the upper left), 2012 (on the upper right), the 2nd (in blue)
+ and it is a Sunday. Select the month (or year) by clicking on the little
+ arrows on each side of September (or 2012). Select the day by clicking on
+ its number.</para>
+
+ <para>On the bottom left is the <emphasis role="bold">Network Time
+ Protocol</emphasis> synchronising, it is possible to have a clock always on
+ time by synchronising it with a server. Check <guilabel>Enable Network Time
+ Protocol</guilabel> and choose the closest server.</para>
+
+ <para>On the right part is the <emphasis role="bold">clock</emphasis>. It's
+ useless to set the clock if NTP is enabled. Three boxes display hours,
+ minutes and seconds (15, 28 and 22 on the screenshot). Use the little arrows
+ to set the clock to the correct time. The format can't be changed here, see
+ your desktop environment settings for that.</para>
+
+ <para>At least, on the bottom right, select your time zone by clicking on
+ the <guibutton>Change Time Zone</guibutton> button and choosing in the list
+ the nearest town.</para>
+
+ <note>
+ <para>Even if it isn't possible to choose a date or time format in this
+ tool, they will be displayed on your desktop in accordance with the
+ localisation settings.</para>
