Please do some searches on freshports, I'm quite sure there are some
ports there creating tray icons. Google is your friend too.
I din't find anything, but I'll try again.
In the meantime I upgraded my desktop:
For this kind of stuff (and also the previous point) I'm using
sysutils/conky
Doesn't conky show a widget on the desktop? I want that on a panel.
Well, I just proposed what I use daily, everyone has his own preferences.
Now one more question:
I can't quite cope with the deafult themes (Clearlooks which I was using
previously, now has changed in some way), so I downloaded some extra
ones and I'm trying to install them.
However, when I press "+ Add" in xfce4-appearance-settings and choose
the tarball, it tries to create a temporary directory in / (e.g.
"mktemp: mkdtemp failed on /tmp.G9yLe4V3: Permission denied").
Is this normal???
Is it a bug? Or am I trying to do things the wrong way?
Looking at sources xfce4-settings uses a script to perform the operation
at one point it executes this line of code:
tmpdir=`TMPDIR="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$TMPDIR}" mktemp -d`
Could you check with env in a terminal if you have any of those two env
vars set?
I do not have any, so the script would obviously end up using the root
directory, which is definitely wrong.
I need to think a little what the best solution could be in this case. I
also need to check the full script to create a sensible patch.
