May I suggest the Numix circle icons set for R9!  If not too late before the release, it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for such a fine distro.

Howdie to all members.
Just installed R8 LXDE 64bit on HP6730b laptop.  So far VERY pleased.  Just one issue: how do I set the time.  The system tray/task bar digital clock is indicating the wrong time.  Thanks for assisting in solving this minor issue and CONGRATS to the developers.

I checked the BIOS clock time : no issue there.

SOLUTION:
1) re-installed R8 LXDE 64bit
2) added 4 hours to the BIOS clock time
3) re-booted ... and voilà!  Issue solved.

I would like to add that while using the live session the system tray digital clock time was correct.  Once R8 was installed on the HDD the time lagged 4 hours.  So I just followed my intuition and booted in to the BIOS settings and simply added 4 hours to the BIOS clock time.  This is the trick that did it for me.  Hope it helps other members with a similar issue.
