    Question screenlets

    i downloaded screenlets 0.0.7 from compiz web site.
    And i installed it by sudo make install command

    then, i wrote the following command to start the screenlets daemon

    $screenletsd start

    it said...

    Session-file /home/lakshmanan/.config/Screenlets/screenletsd.ses not found (will be created automatically).

    when i tried to add Clock screenlet(by screenletsd add Clock), it said

    Error: Screenlets-Backend (screenletsd) not found.

    Re: screenlets

    well...

    "screenlets" is availible through the repository


    so what i would do if i were you is..

    Code:
    cd /wherever/you/saved/screenlets
    then

    Code:
    sudo make uninstall
    (this is the exact opposte of make install, it will remove the screenlets that you installed)

    then just delete the entire folder after doing make uninstall

    then
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install screenlets
    (this will download and automatically install screenlets from the repository)

    then try the screenlets again and all should be working
    (the repository is usually the best choice for downloading anything)
