X-BeenThere: freebsd-gnome@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: GNOME for FreeBSD -- porting and maintaining List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 04 Sep 2003 03:32:45 -0000 Here are five stuff: ========================== gdesklets-boxmail gdesklets-external gdesklets-externalinterval gdesklets-fontselector gdesklets-iconbutton ========================== What's my problem? gdesklets-boxmail: I can't test on this one, because all my desktop boxes are using Maildir and no sendmail. It depends on gdesklets-iconbutton and gdesklets-fontselector. gdesklets-external: I have the feel that this might be not really work. Because, some applets that depend on this doesn't work, so it might be applet or this fault. Almost forgot, I have tested one example that came with this and it doesn't even work too. gdesklets-externalinterval: This is based on gdesklets-external, so I tried two different applets that depend on this. They don't work, so I am blaming on this. I tested this with fortune and memo applets[1]. gdesklets-fontselector: This one should be work, the gdesklets-boxmail depends on this and I am able to change the fonts. I am hold on this one until one of applet need this when put in port. gdesklets-iconbutton: I can't test this, since none of applets that depend on this and I can't test gdesklets-boxmail. I am not sure if it works or not, but it should be since it is based on gdesklets-starterbar. If anyone with the knowledge or skill fix on Python, pleast just let me know and I will send you those ports. All your job will be create the patch(es) and send those to PR. You are welcome to change the maintainer, email and etc if you want to. Few applets that I have tried such as weather, sysinfo and etc. None of them work and I have no idea why they just don't work, because they don't output any error.
