I don't use the default lcd-weather plasmoid so won't offer any suggestions or theories on it, but I do have installed and on my desktop, kde-misc/yawp (yet another weather plasmoid), and in the system tray, I have "Weather Forcast" activated (system tray context menu, system tray settings, display icon, unlock widgets if necessary, extra items, select weather forcast, after which you can context-click it to configure). yawp appears as a system tray optional item as well, but it doesn't work well with vertically arranged systrays such as mine, so it's disabled there in favor of weather forcast, with yawp as a desktop plasmoid instead. The location selection and general functionality of both of those work. I know as I'm using them. (Gentoo/~amd64 no-multilib with kde 4.6.2 and including the kde overlay, tho yawp's in the main tree and I /think/ weather forcast is default.) So if you can't get the LCD weather plasmoid to work, there's two options that I /do/ know work, here on Gentoo. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
