They work better than those awful Screenlets, but that's about all that can be said for them.

Thanks. Trying it now.

After reading a lot of different forums, and installing many different libraries, I still can't get ggl-gtk to run. When I try to run it the first time to update its database, this is the result that I get:

Not a regular file: /
Failed to load module gtkmoz-browser-element
Failed to load module gst-mediaplayer-element
Failed to load module gst-audio-framework
Demarshal failed. Type dismatch, message type:

Failed to load module smjs-script-runtime
Failed to load module curl-xml-http-request

Which is driving me nuts as I would very much like to have gadgets working.

Hoping someone who solved this problem has some advice. I am on hardy.
