LXDE Weather app?
« on: January 01, 2010, 08:55:10 AM »
Is there a weather app for the LXDE desktop?  Superkaramba (liquid weather) doesn't come up and I'm not sure what else is available.  XFCE has a nice little weather app for its tool panel.  Anything like that for LXDE?

No, there isn't an LXDE weather app. Weatherbug works with LXDE, though.

Weatherbug? I see it's in the repo.  Sure hope its not like the Windows version...a resource hog and nothing but ads, ads, ads.

I wish SuperKaramba wold run.  Any Gnome apps?  Gdesklets, I think?  Does that work in LXDE?

I've used weatherbug. No ads.
Try screenlets. There's a weather screenlet.

I will. Just as son as Update Notifier gets straightened out.  I can't install anything until then.
