Trying to get gDesklets to work but keep getting this error. I have downloaded gconf from gnome's site and compiled it.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/gdesklets", line 4, in ?
from main import HOME
File "/usr/local/share/gdesklets/main/__init__.py", line 67, in ?
from utils.i18n import Translator
File "/usr/local/share/gdesklets/utils/__init__.py", line 2, in ?
from GConfWatcher import GConfWatcher
File "/usr/local/share/gdesklets/utils/GConfWatcher.py", line 3, in ?
import gconf
ImportError: No module named gconf

Thanks in advance

that means that you don't have the gconf python module... try grabbing gnome-python

Yep I got it working, well some of them anyways. LOL

I was interested on gDesklets but couldn't get it to run on RH9 before.. but this thread really interest me and I've downloaded the latest version, compiled and install. Now, how do I get this thing to work? I've downloaded starterbar, run the installation script but when I run $ gdesklets starterbar.display, it gave an error message saying that it couldn't load the sensor .. checking my .gdesklets, it is there under sensors directory .. btw, I did configure with the following options:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc

Help...!

Forget it, found a prepackaged RPM, installed it and everything went smoothly well.

You could post the the url for the rpm. Even though I have gdesklets running fine on mine, there are some others that have touble.

Its only polite.

Allright, found where I downloaded it from ...
