2.4.1 Configuring Search with Beagle Settings
Beagle is the search engine used on the SLED GNOME Desktop. By default, Beagle is configured
to start automatically and index your home directory. If you want to change these settings, specify
the number of results displayed after a search or change the Beagle privacy settings, click Computer
> Control Center > System > Beagle Settings.
2.4.2 Configuring Date and Time
To change your date and time configuration, for example to change your time zone or the way the
date and time are displayed, click Computer > Control Center > System > Date and Time. This
opens the YaST Date and Time module, which requires root privileges. Enter the root password and
follow the instructions on the YaST pages.
2.4.3 Configuring Network Proxies
The Network Proxy Configuration tool lets you configure how your system connects to the Internet.
You can configure the desktop to connect to a proxy server and specify the details of the server. A
proxy server is a server that intercepts requests to another server and fulfills the request itself, if it
can. You can specify the Domain Name Service (DNS) name or the Internet Protocol (IP) address of
the proxy server. A DNS name is a unique alphabetic identifier for a computer on a network. An IP
address is a unique numeric identifier for a computer on a network.
Click Computer > Control Center > System > Network Proxies.
