Select the 3rd tick box of the first configuration screen that right clicking it (near the top) brings up... :rolleyes:

thx

Well that's window manager specific isn't it? Which one are you using (KDE, Gnome, OpenBox...)

Cool

black box

Try using the -w option:
gkrellm -w
IIRC this runs it in the right side of the screen.

Cool

killi 05-25-2003 12:04 PM
the way proud told me worked

Proud 05-25-2003 12:07 PM
MasterC, the -w is to run it in the system tray/slit.
The second config screen mentions a compatable window manager may be needed, but I think the first has a nice trick of passing the dragging event to the window manager to be instantly repositioned where it was at closure/logout :)

MasterC 05-25-2003 12:07 PM
Good deal :)

Cool
