gkrellm, aflag_anim.so, not working

MasterC,

In your screenshot in that other thread, you have a flag plugin for gkrellm. I am assuming that it is aflag_anim-0.1.tar.gz . Is that right? Did you have trouble installing it?

I downloaded and installed gkrellm-2.1.15.tar.bz2, so I have a $HOME/.gkrellm2/plugins directory. The other plugins are there and work. The .so files they created have a mode of 755. The aflag_anim.so file was, well I don't remember now, but it was white, not green like the others. It didn't work that way. I chmod 755'd it and that didn't work either. I noticed that there was an aflag_anim.so file in the ../.gkrellm2/plugins/aflag directory and it was larger than the .so file that the make process put in the plugins directory. So I copied it in there. And that didn't work either.

Any ideas? Maybe it was a different plugin altogether.

Thanks...

I didn't even see this one

I'm running GK 1.2 so that might have something to do with it...

Yeah, it's the aflag_anim though, and it's the only 1 of it's kind AFAIK..

Here's my perm's on it, though I don't think that's the problem:

Code:

bash-2.05a$ ls -lh .gkrellm/plugins

-rw-r--r--    1 masterc  users         32k Sep 24  2002 aflag_anim.so

-rwxr-xr-x    1 masterc  users         78k Sep 25  2002 seti.so

Check to see that you do have it enabled, that's the only thing that is springing to mind...

Cool

It must be the fact that you are using Gkrellm-2.x based off Gtk-2.x, Gdk-2.x and glib-2.x, I am as well running Gkrellm based off versions 1.2 of aforementiioned dependencies and the American Flag plugin works fine, but I have another hurdle with Solaris - I isntalled Gkrellm and I cannot add any plugins to it, but it is another discussion.
