Hi

How can I start the weather applet in gnome shell say two times, one would be for one city and the second one for another.

Indicator weather will allow for the setup of more than one location, but it will appear as an icon on the bottom right and remain hidden until you move the cursor to the bottom right of the screen. My current gnome shell weather extension displays on top, but only allows for one location.
sudo apt-get install indicator-weather Restart the shell and start the weather indicator by selecting the icon from applications. When the icon appears on the bottom right enter preferences for setup.

if you install the classic systray extension it will be displayed at top panel and always visible.

Hi, how to put weather indicato on the top panel in gnome-shell?I have only one location, there is nothing similar to the classic gnome panel?

thanks

The gnome shell extension that made the use of indicator-weather possible in the top panel was rejected for some reason. You can add the extension at the link though. http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/install-gnome-shell-weather-extension.html
