Hey,

i am using fedora12,i just wanted to know whether it is possible to add gadgets at the right hand side of your desktop. ie radio button,weather report etc which are present in windows 07/vista.

Kind Regards,
Manish

That is a really good question. I have no idea.

Try:

Code:

#yum install gdesklets

Then you can run it from the terminal

Code:

 # gdesklets

and it should pop up a whole lot of stuff you can add.

It isn't the most comprehensive but there are things like weather and so forth.

Hey,

Alli_yas thanx for the reponse,i would prefer the gadgets of google rather than the above commands ,neways here is the link http://desktop.google.com/linux/,just copy paste this link and then download it, after doing this google sidebar should be placed on right side of the desktop! and then add the respective gadgets of google,there are tons of them!!

Kind Regards,
