Well, I found kworldclock, which seems pretty much what you are describing, however I fail to configure it as a background, since I don't find the corresponding walletpaper. Uwe

As above.. kcontrol - Appearance and Themes - Background .. now look on the right just underneath the picture of the monitor, there's Advanced Options, now select use the following program for drawing the background and you should then be able to select kdeworld from the list. Cheers, Gavin.

KDE 3.2.2 has been in sid for a couple of weeks now - and I now suspect you have a mix of packages from 3.2.2 and a previous version which may explain strange problems you're having - could you try a full dist-upgrade to bring everything on your system to a concurrent level? In any case under Did you mean to leave this sentence half-finished? I do that a lot! :) no it is not there, the option to use a appear only the option bleeding. Strange Uwe, I think the language barrier has come between us - I simply don't understand what you're trying to say :( Could you perhaps post a screenshot of what your 'Advanced Options' window looks like (use the 'ksnapshot' package to do this) Mine looks like http://bum.net/snapshot1.jpg Cheers, Gavin.
