gDesklets problems. Help needed, I am about to suffer a mental brakedown


I have spent some hours now trying to make gDesklets work. Everytime I install a sensor and start something that requires it I get an error saying that the sensor I just installed is not installed. If it doesn't complain about the sensor, it says the .display-file is wrong. The only thing I have managed to run is a weather indicator, which is not capable of showing the weather where I live. The weather thingy is probably just a matter of a faulty URL I guess (if someone could tell me the correct URL for Stockholm, Sweden that would be great).

But the main problem is that the sensors do not seem to install themselves in the right place. How can I check this? Can I alter some path so that gDesklets will find them? I really need help on this one as I am totally stranded now.

Sorry to say that I have not gotten gDesklets to work either, but I'm working on it.
Here are some weather codes:
SWXX0031 Stockholm
USME0405 Stockholm, ME
USNJ0503 Stockholm, NJ
USSD0324 Stockholm, SD
USWI0664 Stockholm, WI

Which weather thing are you using? There's a few...

Try the PSI desklets, they come in a package, you can just open up the desklets manager and install the packages and it sets up everything for ya.
