HOWTO: Successfully run gDesklets
gDesklets is a nice little program where you can add "desklets" to your desktop that control different programs/show different stats. You can use it to replace your Gnome panels, or maybe add some guages to show your CPU/Mem usage, the choices are yours.

So, to begin, here is what your need to do:

1. Installing gDesklets using APT

Installing gDesklets is fairly easy. First, you need to add the universe/multiverse repositories. You can find out how to do that at http://www.ubuntuguide.org under Howto add extra repositories Once done, open up a terminal and type
Code:

sudo apt-get install gdesklets (notice all the small letters)



You now have gdesklets installed. For anyone who is going to try this through Synaptic, you will have two gdesklets search results: gdesklets and gdesklets-data. DO NOT INSTALL GDESKLETS DATA! the files are out of date, and won't work right with gdesklets.

2. Setting up your desklets

Now the fun part, we get to set up our desklets! First, lets test and see if gDesklets is installed and working correctly. Goto your gnome panel Accessories---gDesklets. It should now open up in a window. Goto Profiles---New Profile. Call this profile default.

3. Getting and installing desklets

Getting and installing desklets is probably the easiest part of this entire HOWTO. Here is what you do: Open up a browser and goto http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org/categories.php

This is their Displays&Sensors page, here is where you can get your applets. Scroll around through the different categories and find a few that you like. Save them to your home directory (I'm using /home/myusername/gdesklets to store them)

Now, time to install them. LEAVE THEM IN THEIR FORMAT, do not extract them. Go back to your gDesklets window and go File---Install Package. Select the desklet that you want to install (one at a time) and it will appear in the right hand window. Double click on it and add it to your desktop. To configre your desklet, right click and select Configure, enter in your options.

Congratulations, you now have your desklets installed.

4. Getting gDesklets to start on log in

Now, wouldn't it be nice if this all happened for you right on statup of your system? Well, it can. Goto your Gnome panel and select System---Preferences---Sessions.
Goto the Startup Programs tab and select Add. Fill in with this information:

Startup Command: gdesklets
Order: 50
Ok

That's it. Enjoy.

HOWTO:成功运行gDesklets

gDesklets是个非常棒的小程序,你可以在里面添加一些控制其他程序或者显示各种状态"小东东"到你的桌面. 你可以用它来替代你的Gnome面板,或者你也可以用些界面显示你的CPU和存储器的使用情况,你爱怎么用就怎么用.

好,开始使用之前,需要做好下面这些事情:

1.用APT安装gDesklets

安装gDesklets再简单不过了.首先你得有universe/multiverse的源.你可以在http://www.unbuntuguide.org的Howto中找到添加这些源的方法.搞定之后,打开终端,敲入以下命令:
sudo apt-get install gdesklets (注意要全部小写)

你现在就已经安装好gdesklets了.如果你是通过Synaptic来安装的,你会找到两个关于gDesklets的结果:gdesklets和gdesklets-data.千万不要安装gdesklets-data!因为这个软件已经过分陈旧,无法很好地和gdesklets协作运行.

2.设置你的桌面小东东(desklets)

最好玩的部分:我们要设置我们的desklets了!首先,我们要检查一下gDesklets是否安装,是否能正确运行.点击gnome桌面菜单里面的附件菜单中的gDesklets,应该能启动一个窗口.点击配置->新的配置,将此配置设为默认.

3.获取和安装desklets

获取并安装desklets可能是这篇HOWTO里面最简单的一部分了.你只需要打开浏览器,转到http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org/categories.php 这个页面.

这就是Displays&Sensors页面了,你可以在这里找到你想要的一些小东东.在各个类别里翻翻拣拣,我相信你会淘到不少自己中意之物.保存到你自己的目录里面去吧(我使用/home/myusername/gdesklets来保存).

现在就是安装的时候了.保持它们原来的格式不要变!别给它们解压缩.回到刚才的gDesklets窗口,点击文件->安装包.选择你所要安装的那个desklet包来安装(一次只能选一个),然后就会在右手边的窗口出现了.双击加进你的桌面.如果要配置你的desklet,右键单击选择"配置"进行你个性化的配置.

恭喜你!你已经成功安装了你的desklets.

4.在启动时自动运行gDesklets

若是能在系统启动的时候能够进行这一切岂不是更好?当然,完全可以.点击Gnome面板中的 系统->首选项->会话.

选择"启动程序"这一页,点击"添加",填入以下信息:
启动命令:gdesklets
顺序:50

搞定!

大功告成!Enjoy it!
