the weather code is from http://conky.sourceforge.net/screenshots.html. scroll to the bottom. look above the black, orange, and white banner conky screenshot for the black and purplish one. there should be a series of config and zip files of scripts. the weather script is called weather.tar.gz. look at the conkrc file to see how to call the script.
looks cool. I dont mean to snoop, you got a one ghz cpu? dosent that battle with gnome and stuff?
Nah, it runs fine. It's actually a 1.8GHz Athlon64; I have CPU frequency scaling enabled so during low load it's at about half its usual speed, so it runs cooler.
I also run Gnome on my 900MHz laptop and it runs pretty well on that, too. I just wish it would use less memory.
so far so good , but having spending some time in the balloting forums i think i will give pclinuxos a try ...

Pretty interesting looking. Is that IceWM with GNOME-panel at the top and nautilus, or some other panel or program that you're using to put icons on the desktop?
