 I would guess that they're just superkaramba widgets
 (http://netdragon.sourceforge.net/ssuperkaramba.html) or desklets
 (www.gdesklets.de). there's also a widget engine called screenlets
 (.org), but i'm not sure if it's usable yet.

Thank you Steven and Lauri,

I think ya'll hit the nail on the head. It's either gDesklets or super
Karamba. I will look at both. I don't know what, if anything, is going
on with super Karamba, but it doesn't look like it has had any
development since 2006 and much of it is 2003. I'll also look at
creating a new panel and going at it that way. There is no reason that
shouldn't work.

Thanks again.

For KDE, bear in mind it is kinda in a state of flux at the moment, 
under going a major update from KDE3 to KDE4.

super Karamba was essentially an add-on to KDE3. For KDE4 the idea is 
there, but more built into the desktop itself. Checkout some of the beta 
screenshots floating around on the web.

So I would say not that super Karamba has really stagnated, but more 
evolved into something else for KDE4.

I think you meant Screenlets. There's also a screenlet that fakes the
right-hand panel of Vista.

screenlets.org

[compiz] Compiz - vista like Right Side Panel

2007-10-28 Thread David C. Rankin J.D. P.E.

Guys (and girls)

I have seen screenshots of compiz with a vista like right side panel
holding the clock, calendar, system stats, etc. that I would love to
add. The problem is that (1) I don't know what it is called or (2) where
to look to get it. I have looked at kasbar, ksim and universal sidebar
under KDE, but those are not what I've seen. Anyone else have any other
ideas?
