Maybe you should try the latest version from: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~indiv-screenlets-dev/indiv-screenlets/trunk/files/head:/src/Lipik/

It's version 0.15 there.

However, starting the screenlet from terminal and seeing what goes wrong is essential. Do you use the latest Screenlets built from source? AFAIK Fedora doesn't have it packaged. - Sep 12 2012

Yes, I suggest you try ppa:screenlets-dev/ppa

You can find directions at http://screenlets.org/index.php/Download

However I have not not tested Screenlets much on XFCE. - Jun 20 2012

If you run it from command line and get some error messages, we could maybe do something about it.

I suppose it is something like:

Are you using latest 0.1.7 of screenlets? - Jun 19 2012
Oh and about resizing Lipik with mouse from corner --- this is a matter of Screenlets framework. No point of implementing that only in Lipik. However Screenlets probably won't see that feature, since it's not actively developed any more.

And about the moving thing --- have you tried to start dragging from edge (preferrably top edge, because it's widest of them)? - May 08 2012
Which version of Screenlets do you have and which desktop do you use? There were problems with that once, but I thought these were resolved. Do you use latest Screenlets from PPA? You should, anyway. - May 08 2012

There was a bit too crazy grepping algorith which didn't seem to work. I committed updated version to Dev PPA couple of seconds ago. See if it fixes the problem.

Btw, you can always select "Ignore dependencies" from each screenlet config, this should fix it anyway. - Feb 03 2012

Conky by boamaod 86 comments

What locale do you use? If you run screenlets with default locale like "LANG=C screenlets-daemon" does the bug appear?

I have the same versions on Ubuntu 11.10 and don't have the problem. However there are some calls to apt-cache and dpkg which are parsed from CLI, locale may affect the parser. These are in /usr/share/pyshared/screenlets/__init__.py. If you want, you may try if adding LANG=C in front of those calls helps. I mean like "commandstr = 'LANG=C apt-cache ... - Dec 31 2011

Please confirm, that the message appears with latest Screenlets from Dev PPA. If so, pleast tell the exact versions you are using (screenlets and googlecalendar).

And I believe you can override the Debian version from screenlet options, so the message won't display. - Dec 31 2011

NowPlaying (improved)

Conky by brucelee 50 comments

Hello

I filed a bug on Launchpad for NowPlaying. There is an issue with unspecified licenses in headers of source files and in order to maintain the NowPlaying in basic-pack, this must be corrected. Only you can do it, because only you know where did you take the snippets you are using. Do you have time to fix these formal issues?

For details, see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indiv-screenlets/+bug/825696. - Aug 19 2011
Net Monitor

Conky by drxnele 78 comments

You can translate it on https://translations.launchpad.net/indiv-screenlets (it's called netmonitor-screenlet), although it's not the latest version there. But you can always try to convince the developer of this screenlet to update the version on Launchpad (or do it yourself, if you fail to convince him). - Aug 19 2011

Instead of GitHub, how do you think about joining official Screenlets Bazaar project with your InfoPanel? You can read http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Documentation#Why_should_I_add_my_Screenlet_to_individual_Screenlets_project and give it a thought. I think your InfoPanel is a quality Screenlet, it would be much more easily available to users in the official PPA. Maybe it would be meaningful to switch to InfoPanel in the Basic Pack instead of Sysmonitor... I mean some time in the future, it's open to discussion. - Apr 21 2011

I added Lyrics screenlet to Basic Pack in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~indiv-screenlets-dev/indiv-screenlets/trunk/revision/900.

Maybe you would like to host code on official Screenlets project? Lyrics Screenlet is already added to the repository and it has been make translatable there (see https://translations.launchpad.net/indiv-screenlets/trunk/+pots/lyrics-screenlet). If you join and update the code there, it will be automatically updated for users using the Screenlets PPA as well as other benefits (see http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Documentation#Why_should_I_add_my_Screenlet_to_individual_Screenlets_project). - Apr 07 2011
Google Calendar Screenlet

Conky by boamaod 86 comments

I added weekday formatting to the version 0.4.13. It is available at the Individual Screenlets Bazaar repository now and will become available on Screenlets PPA during next 24h. If you have installed your GoogleCalendar from PPA, you should get the option to set weekday format by a normal update soon (under DIY overkill, third field).

I'm afraid there are no instructions for the DIY overkill. It's meant for users who understand basics of text formatting with Pango (it's like HTML, but only using basic tags) and tabs and are willing to try things out themselves or take a look at the source code to figure things out. If you have a concrete question, maybe I'll have an answer for you... - Feb 28 2011

I 'gettexted' the Screenlet once more in revision http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~indiv-screenlets-dev/indiv-screenlets/trunk/revision/841, please update your local code before making changes, and if you have time, please see, if everything is fine after the changes. - Feb 25 2011
NowPlaying (improved)

Conky by brucelee 50 comments

You can see how the NowPlaying screenlet was made translatable from previous revision on project: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~indiv-screenlets-dev/indiv-screenlets/trunk/view/832/src/NowPlaying/NowPlayingScreenlet.py. Although I think the row #113 with "# The Screenlet" should be removed, in order to make docstring translatable. Notice the _("String") patterns around UI strings (and not internally used strings). You should incorporate these to the .py files of your screenlet. By now ./potfiles.sh doesn't search *.py in project subdirectories, so I if that's needed I can modify the process (if you don't dare to do it yourself).

If you make your screenlet work with gettext in next few days, we can include the latest version in 0.1.3 of Screenlets. - Feb 21 2011

NowPlaying (improved)

Conky by brucelee 50 comments

We are planning to add NowPlaying to default screenlets pack.

But it would be much more convenient for the project if you put your updates in Individual Screenlets Bazaar repository and keep it refreshed there. It is not useful to keep two sources, especially since we host translations on Launchpad now and we need to manually update gettext decorated translation strings in the code every time you make a new version.

So please, give it a thought! It gives you proper bug tracking etc. See also http://screenlets.org/index.php/Documentation#Why_should_I_add_my_Screenlet_to_individual_Screenlets_project.

About...

ImportError: No module named pydcop

And I don't know, if you have noticed, but you can use __requires__ field for extra modules, if they are needed for basic functionality. See http://screenlets.org/index.php/Documentation#Lets_set_some_global_vars. It currently works only under Debian/Ubuntu. - Feb 20 2011

Conky by boamaod 86 comments

From now on, Natty packages are automatically generated. Except there are no additional packages (like python-gdata etc) for Natty, only the Screenlets themselves. If somebody cares to generate also the dependencies for various Screenlets, I'd be happy to copy these to the PPA. - Dec 22 2010

Thank you for the patch!

WirelessScreenlet

Conky by drxnele 84 comments

Well, just to let you know, since Universal Applets never got to a stable release, I took up the old Screenlets and added some parts from U-A and updated Screenlets a bit. The plan is to incorporate U-A step by step into the old Screenlets branch. There is no deadline though.

If you are member of U-A, then U-A is automatically a member of individual Screenlets.

I was just proposing that you can use the individual Screenlets branch for VCS of your projects, because it is published automatically on Screenlets PPA and gives possibility to translate individual Screenlets etc, but it's up to you of course. I do not plan to update your Screenlet at the repository myself, though. It's up to you as an original developer or whoever wishes to do it. - Dec 06 2010
Feed Reader *Plus*

Conky by chiptdev 7 comments

I don't know how much you hold an eye on Screenlets, but maybe you would be interested joining the project https://launchpad.net/indiv-screenlets with your code. I suppose you should just continue the FeedReader in the project. No need to split into Plus.

There is some documentation on this as well as connected topics at http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Documentation#Why_should_I_add_my_Screenlet_to_individual_Screenlets_project.

I think I don't need to mention that Screenlets Core needs some help too. By now looking through the bugtracker is the most important thing, I suppose. - Dec 05 2010

Maybe you would be interested in developing your code under the project https://launchpad.net/indiv-screenlets. Notice that Screenlets 0.1.3 has implemented the requirements check and with Debian package the dependencies would be installed automatically. This would make installing of the Screenlet as well as getting the updates a bit easier for the users. And if in the project, all the packaging would be done automatically by a script.

Hey, you can get the version with the updates you want from: http://code.google.com/p/gcalscreenlet/downloads/list

I didn't update the version here yet and I want to wait with that a bit.

If you want to replace notify lines, you should replace them with "pass" (without quotes), otherwise there will be syntax error I suppose.

Please, tell me how does the new version satisfy your needs. I also changed notification mechanism a bit, could you please give feedback also on this. - Nov 05 2010

Google Calendar Screenlet

Conky by boamaod 86 comments

How did you managed to get past the notify problem?

About 7 hrs it's getting complicated. Is you time only displayed 7 hrs later or the events that have not yet occurred are omitted? The best thing to do, is to run GCal from command line "python ~/.screenlets/GCal/GCalScreenlet.py" and see how are the events displayed in the terminal. You can post the relevant output here (example calendar info and events info).

In terminal all the events received from Google are displayed with the beginning and end time (in the format 2010-11-01T02:30:00.000+09:00). Also time zone is displayed "TZ: ..." You should check if the data displayed in the terminal is all right. Especially pay attention to time zone data (this +09:00 is time zone addition (compared to UTC) for Asia/Tokyo. If something of this is incorrect for your case, then we can think of what to do.

Just subtracting 7 hours somewhere may break something else. Are you sure locale settings for your computer are OK? If you want to play the displayed time in python source, then you have to change strStartTime and strEndTime somewhere after lines 824-825, but as time formatting is a troublemaker in python, I cannot give a simple recipe here. Probably you have to convert the string to datetime objects, then change them, then convert back to time objects, add custom formatting and then display...

Was this OK before upgrading to the version with the custom time format? - Oct 28 2010
Google Calendar Screenlet

Conky by boamaod 86 comments

Are you completely sure that you have the latest version installed correctly? Maybe you should remove completly and then reinstall. I have nothing of the problems you describe. GCal had problem with time zones in the beginning, but I managed to fix that. I'm not in UTC either and everything works out fine. I'm afrain I cannot help you much further with that.

If you are on Debian/Ubuntu, maybe it would be worth to check out http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Screenlets_Stayinalive, but I'm not sure it helps anything with that. However, it should at least remove the GNOME keyring problem if you for some reason haven't correctly applied the patch suggested somewhere above. - Oct 27 2010
Google Calendar Screenlet

Conky by boamaod 86 comments

That's strange, I haven't noticed this kind of behaviour and I couldn't reproduce the situation. Even the message I get for wrong username is "Invalid login, check username and password."

But if you want to get rid of the message, you can open ~/.screenlets/GCal/GCalScreenlet.py on line 1046:

except Exception:
self.__notifier.notify("Invalid login, check username and password.")
return False

And remove the line which has the function for displaying this message. You can remove other notifications too, just search for "__notifier.notify".

Actually I had an issue with notifiers once, but then I carefully designed the notifying system not to be annoying. I cannot imagine, what is your situation. Do you have a good link to Internet? Does Google calendar on the Web generally work fine?

If everybody has the same problem, I can of course remove the notifier from the central package... So give me feedback! - Oct 26 2010
