By default the MoCap software does not allow a user to modify time settings without escalating to root privileges. If you would like to allow a user to change the time without root privileges you will have to enter the following into a terminal; it will create a file with the setting to allow a user to modify time. Changes will be present upon reboot: 

sudo su -

cat > /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/10-settings.pkla << EOF

[user is allowed to modify settings]

Identity=unix-user:user

Action=org.gnome.settingsdaemon.*

ResultInactive=no

ResultActive=yes

EOF   

If your machine is connected to the Internet, you can sync your computer software and hardware clock to network time by using the ntpdate and hwclock programs. Depending on your machine you may need to install these programs: 

sudo yum install util-linux ntpdate   

Once they are installed the software and hardware clock can be set by: 

sudo ntpdate -s pool.ntp.org

sudo hwclock -w
