1. Install Xnest;
2. Add a test user to your system;
3. Run a nested window GDM session (in System Tools);
4. Login as the test user;
5. In your own user session:
a) open a shell
b) change DISPLAY to the test user nested session display (eg. :20)
c) run: gdb python
d) inside gdb: run /foo/bar/myapplet.py
6. In the test user nested session, add your test applet to the panel
7. Logout from the test user nested session
Perhaps test user can be == your user, I'm not sure.
Regards.
