 Yup.  That looks like them.  At least the ones I can get running.
 None of which were the ones I wanted, and all of which appear to suck
 my RAM usage to 1G in about 30 seconds.
 
 Maybe it's because I'm running Fvwm2?

I think they use a lot of memory regardless, maybe a little less with
KDE.

 
 Hmm.  Maybe I'll play with KDE a bit.  See how I like it - it's
 already installed because of some kdelibs dependencies, so I might as
 well.  I don't suppose it has an Aqua-like bar?  It would be nice if
 it also had a Dashboard like interface.  That would be too cool.

The bar in KDE is called the Kicker. I know that they have kicker
widgets but I haven't used KDE in over a year so I haven't kept up on 
any of that. Check out KDElook.org if you haven't.

 
 Thanks for the pointer.
 

No problem. Enjoy.

Konfabulator widget knockoffs?

2005-09-18 Thread Louis LeBlanc
Crazy question here maybe, but I'm pretty fascinated by the
Konfabulator and MacOS X widgets that are becoming more and more
popular.  Very cool little clients.  The what to do widget is just
great, and there's tons of other excellent widgets, like the weather
and search utilities.

I've looked at the ports directory, and can't find anything that looks
like these little gadgets.  Does anyone have any idea if such a thing
is available for FreeBSD/Linux?

SuperKaramba it's in the ports. It's something from KDE project. I
pretty sure Konfabulator was borrowed from this...
