I installed your karamba theme, and am at a loss of how to configure it (the configure option is greyed out). I would really love a gmail widget that works, and yours looks promising.

Oh God...it doesnt work again... it sayd ERR instead of number of unread mails. What have I to do??

I have version 1.1 but I still have the same problems everybody else has. it keeps saying that I have 1000 unread messages but I don't.

The theme prints out 80 as the number of unread messages, no matter how many messages are in my inbox. Any idea what's up?

yeah i have the same problem, except mine started at 100, and every 3 mails i dont delete it adds another 10 to the number

at the moment mine is at 120, when i get a new message it adds 10

so if i get 1 new email, then the number will be 130 etc..

now if i dont delete any of them then the number will increase, so i have to keep remembering what number it was last at, to see if i have any new emails

I like it very much. I just changed the default background (I don't like to see pixel, I prefer antialiasing). So I pick up the original logo from GMail, and put it as background (I modified the .theme as well). You can find it at http://mykey57.free.fr/pub/picture/gmoo.png .

Good work :)

How do I get it to work?

I use this as my path "/home/hello/Install/SKT/GMOO/libgmail/GMOO.py"

It doesn't work though. Double-clicking the icon works though. Any idea's?

i dont know if it's my really long user name or what but i cant see the number part. I was dumb and put the email address as my username so its like 21 characters long.
-any help would be appreciated...
-as of now its just a convient link on the desktop.

GMOO won't display how many new mails I've got, but double clicking on the mail opens up my gmail account just fine. Here's the error message I got:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/jafar/Apps/Superkaramba/GMOO/libgmail/GMOO.py", line 13, in ?

I have editted the GMOO.theme correctly I think, so please tell me what I am doing wrong.

Can you please tell me how to connect the Notifier behind a windows server(Proxy). When i connect directly it works(on DialUp). But when my linux box becomes Workstation then Notifier doesnt work. I have set all the proxies globly which activate during startup. Every Application connecting to internet works fine except this.. Any Suggestion please - - -

Thanks.

Well, I tried that. I find that if I double click on the "M", Firefox opens to my homepage. But a single click does nothing. Still, I'm pretty happy having a mail notifier.

Is there an easy way to have it monitor 2 gmail accounts? I tried copying the one account line (with proper login info, and positioned the text so they were not on top of each other) and found that the second account mail indicator was the sum of BOTH accounts (so if each account had one message, the number of messages shown for the second account was two). Not critical, but if this worked it would be cool...

I think you should copy GMOO,
and open it twice. In each GMOO
configure other account.

try to write the location to your
browser, ex:
/home/itay/softwares/firefox/firefox

itayf

Write the path to firefox and it will
work. to example:
/home/itay/softwares/firefox/firefox

This theme works great for me, with no error messages. Except that the hotlink (the M) does not open a browser for me. I tested the script in a command shell, and it opens my browser (firefox) just fine, and logs in just fine. But from the theme, nothing. Anyone have any thoughts?

Every half an hour GMOO prints
"ERROR" for 2 minutes, it shouldn't
be disturbing. If you have an error
message for a long time, do that:

Click on the envelope, then login
with your username and password
(and enter the green word).
After 2 minutes, GMOO will work.

The error doesn't stay for a long time, I just wondered if there was a fix out there. Also, I was just purusing the "README" file in the libgmail file and it has a reference to a file "sendmail.py" in the "demos" dir, neither of which exist. Forgot to include or are these things part of a future release?

itayf

I didn't include all the files of libgmail.
I also didn't find the sendmail.py file
or a referring to it in the REAMDE file.
However, I wrote in GMOO.py where you
can get the original libgmail.

Occassionally I get an error message and then when I try to log into Gmail it sends me to a page where I have to type in some word that is distorted and green (or something like that). Anyway, maybe it's a problem with gmoo asking to check the google account too often...I don't know, just thought I'd give a head's up.
