gDesklets how to get it working?

[Opnosforatou]

Howdy folx,

I've installed Fluxbox as my new WM and it works perfectly.
I found some screenshots of ppl using gDesklets.
I've installed the gDesklet RPM using apt.
Downloaded the clock and the how to get it working here
But somehow I don't get it to work.
I've also downloaded the gDeskCal, that on works if I execute the included gdeskcal script.

I'm not logged in as root, but as a regular user.

Anyone who can guide me through ?

Update: ...
argh...: gdesklets-0.26.2-1.1.fc2.dag found in the RPM.
Let's get it updated to 0.30.

Where did you get the clock? How are you trying to run it? What "sometimes doesn't work"?

The Clock

The callendar works if you execute it with the supplied script.
But if I try to run: gdesklets gdeskcal, my desktops stays blank.
Same problem when using the clock.

You have to execute this:

gdesklets /usr/share/desklets/Sensors/whatever.desklet

I think...been a while since I've run gDesklets.

Tried it, didn't work.

But I found out that I was using 0.26 instead of 0.30
Maybe that could be the problem
