Thanks Werner. I am using LXDE and knoppix32 on a computer running Windows 7 Ultimate in 64-bit. The cheatcode : "knoppix32 tz=Europe/Paris" at boot retruns an error saying that kernel image knoppix32 is not found. Likewise the cheatcode "knoppix32" proposed in the list of cheatcodes. There is no syslnx.cfg file. I entered "tz=Europe/Paris" in syslnx32.cfg and syslnx64.cfg for both LABEL knoppix and LABEL knoppix64. The time zone shown is still "America/New_York" and the time is UTC. NTP says it queried "ntp.univ-angers.fr". Hope this "bug" (?) can be solved. There was no such problem with version 7.2.
