Description: Slicker can now be obtained from cvs. There're instructions on how to get it on the website and it's pretty straightforward so come and get it. http://slicker.sourceforge.net/faq.phpLast changelog:
This isn't really an update btw. Dumb web script, I just wanted to add a new screenshot. Second screen shot works only if you change to jpg -> png. Stupid renaming, argh. Well since it's marked as an update and all I might as well tell you something: It's coming, very very soon. Patience grasshopper, patience. Automake 1.7 now needed for cvs build. You also need to have qt 3.1 for these to work at all and quite possibly kdebase3 and kdelibs3. If you want to get more applets checkout from cvs or pester me to make more packages. Instructions for cvs are on the sourceforge project page.
AND GO HERE http://slicker.sourceforge.net/ Enjoy Thanks for pointing out the license faux pas metrol
Any body knows where I can get :
qt 3.1.0 for suse 8.0
checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.1.0) (library qt-mt) not found.
or if slicker works at all with Suse 8.0
Thanks
yep, i get that with SuSE 8 as well with all qt stuff, i think it is something to do with LD_LIBRARY_PATH not being set up properly after updating qt but i don't no. Anyway i found you can get round it by running configure and make as root, which is probably pretty bad but it works
I really like this! Keep up the good work.
Are there any plans to make an ebuild for gentoo? I would do it myself however I don't really know how to make an ebuild.
Gentoo Forums tells you how to make a fast one from cvs:

haven't tried it yet, but am going to in a minute :)
Hi,
I'm using RH 8.1 beta 3. I downloaded the source code from CVS and tried to compile it.
Everything went well until it did not find the file .../taskbar/preferencesUI.h
there's a file preferenceUI.ui but not the "dot h"
is it missing from CVS ?
bye.
Did someone manage to save the settings? Whenever I restart my computer all cards/applets are gone. Maybe it's just a problem with my pc. Any comments? Thanks.
i think there's a slickerrc file created in ~/.kde/share/config with all settings and some rc files as well. maybe you ran the as root (after make install) and restarted using a normal user.
you're welcome. I'm surprised it's still showing up above 50%. The religious fanatics started voting it down after i changed the license. I think i'll update the rpms in a few weeks. Till then the faq on the slicker website will give you all that you need to know about downloading from cvs.
hi!
i have some questions about development.... Will it be possible to addopt whole apps to the framework as well? how is it done? any information available what to do??
thx :)

Don't ask this moron, he just packaged the files, then submitted the packages without care for the original GPL license. For any help, go to the Slicker page on Sourceforge.
To the kid that packaged these: there's no need to get all pissy when someone points out that you need to respect the authors' original copyright when posting these packages.

gentoo ebuild
is that what i changed it to? I think kde-look.org somehow screwed it up...
illogic-al, you should have know this, by now. it's under the GPL, not LGPL.
can you release the code or better a suse 8.2 rpm here ? i do not knock how to use cvs. nico
i don't have suse 8.2, so that's a negatory (nope).
Now i compiled from CVS, its OK but the Taskbar get 100% CPU when you switch into another Desktop as the first. nico

you need the qt devel rpm as well

Very nice mod to KDE but I'll wait for "Slicker for the Demented", suits me better :)

Now it's ok, I updated the src from cvs and it works fine on RH 8.1 beta 3. tip : when configuring do "./configure --prefix=/usr" Bye.

Thanks, I will try this. By the way thank you for packing this! ;-)
