I decreased the time, because the KDE clock show a time that was one
hour in the future in comparison to my local time.
To decrease the time, I used the down-arrow next to the
hour-field in the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue.
After that I pressed OK and the screen went dark.
Surprisingly to me, the time shown in the 'Adjust Date &
Time...'-dialogue was different from the time shown in the KDE clock
when I opened the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue.
KDE clock show me 15:00, and the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue show me
14:00. So the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue had my local time and I
tried to decrease it for one hour as described above.
By the way when I enter '$ date', I get the same time as in the 'Adjust
Date & Time...'-dialogue.
When the system freezes, I have to turn off the laptop. When it's
rebooted, I can reproduce the error by changing the time again. After
rebooting, the new (=changed) time has been taken over by the KDE
clock and the time shown in the 'Adjust Date & Time...'-dialogue.
The two times still differ for one hour.
