time portion of date/time not showing up



I'm having trouble making the time portion show up on my x-axis.

data look like this:
7/26/2008-09:04 15.917 102.399

and I set it up like this:

set xdata time
set timefmt "%m/%d/%Y-%H:%M"
set format x "%m/%d/%Y\n%H:%M"
plot 'dinfo.dat' using 1:2 with lines

but when I see the graph, the date/time looks like this:

7/26/2008
00:00

My data has many lines, many dates, and the dates all show up, but the
times are always "00:00" no matter what it says on the line.

I've tried changing the way the data is written, such as:

7/26/2008 [tab] 09:04

and used

set timefmt "%m/%d/%Y\t%H:%M"
plot 'dinfo.dat' using 1:3 with lines

and several other variations, and the rest of the graph looks fine,
but the hour and minute never show up.

Any suggestions?
