Wow, awsome!! The gdesklets works much better, which the SysInfo and weather work now. Took me few months to figure.. :-) Gotta to create the new gdesklets.diff and send it to PR.. Then, I will work the SysInfo port with you because there many problem with it. Like, it needs the USE_BZIP2, new distinfo and fix some installtion. Are you going to report at gDesklets's Bugzilla? Or do you want me to do it for you with your credit include?
