User time now displays in UTC, not local

[BFD]

Hello,

I am running Fedora, Test3.

The time on my system for me as a user, previously in local time, is now 
showing in UTC. This shows for the "date" and "hwclock --show" commands, 
as well as the panel clock for KDE.

The time shown by the date and hwclock commands and panel clock when 
root are in local time.

When attempting to change the time on the panel clock, after I enter the 
root password, the dialog box shows local time, but it does not apply 
this to the clock.

I have not that I know of, changed anything. The system automatically 
reset itself this morning to daylight savings time and at that time was 
showing local time.

Can anyone explain this, and how to change it back to reflect local time 
as a user?
