    Can't insall gnomelook.org screenlets.
    « on: May 25, 2009, 12:25:34 AM »
    I am using Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope, and I have a problem with screenlets. I downloaded some screenlets from gnomelook.org    The screenlet-manager says it installed the new screenlets to
    Quote
    ~/daniel/screenlets
    , and they are there

      The problem is that only the screenlets in
    Quote
    /usr/share/screenlets
    show up  below the separator in the screenlet daemon > launch screenlet > screenlet list.  The ones in
    Quote
    ~/daniel/screenlets
    are above the separator and will not launch.  I have to go to my
    Quote
    ~/daniel/screenlets/*
    (the asterisk being a screenlet folder) and double click the .py file to launch.  :(

    So if I get some screenlets from "Gnomelook.org" how do I get them to install and launch.  The instructions that are on the D/L page for a given screenlet are usually, "Put the file in your screenlets folder and run from there" which isn't too helpfull. None of the screenlets have a .config file, so I don't know how to install them from terminal either.  :||x

    Sorry for all the quotes, but it is more readable that way.

     Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
