I have always been a KDE user, not familiar with gnome at all. I heard about gDesklets and I am very interested. Does KDE have anything similar to this? I assume that gDesklets don't work in KDE.

gDesklets do work in KDE actually, they'll work in just about any WM/DE. SuperKaramba is kinda of the same thing but for KDE, and it kinda only works for KDE too. (it'll run on with any DE/WM, but the transparency won't work)

Here's a link for superkaramba. http://netdragon.sourceforge.net/ and you can get themes for it at http//kde-look.org

But if you'd' rather try gDesklets, you can find the info you need at http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org

In your kde autostart folder. I believe it's ~/.kde/Autostart, you can link to the executable. Then when you log back in, it will appear, but you need to right click on the corner of gkrellm, and select stick, so it will traverse on all desktops.

I've actually been able to do that. What I would really like to be able to do though is to make gkrellm transparent, so that you can actually see the wallpaper through gkrellm. Is this a skin that I need to download, or maybe it is only available in a newer version of gkrellm that I don't have?
