A few configuration issues - new user

[anthonyonions]

Hi all, I'm very excited about getting xbian going on my RPi.

I've installed it on an 8gb SD card, and it booted first time no problem.

The issues I've had so far, are that the wifi wouldn't connect. I've since managed to use a cable and connect that way, and then configured the WLAN settings in the terminal session. There is still no connection showing in the xbain gui though, even though it is connected.

Secondly, I've changed the timezone in the terminal, but it still shows the default time in the gui.

Is there a known solution for these issues?

Many thanks,
Anthony
