Still doesn't solve the problem for a SliTaz 3 user 
Offline
Nope, nothing I try can make it work on SliTaz 3. If you want screenlets, you need to move to cooking/rolling 
Offline
@Trixar_za: to keep this thread human-readable - would it be possible to try in short to explain why it might not work in Slitaz 3, technically?
And it does not work in cooking:
I installed it to a brand new boot of cooking. 33 packages were installed- and then I started it first as user root and then as user tux.
Attention: the package gnome-keyring[24G 2.32.1[42G x-window is installed!
The result is shown here:

Linux4morocco: note please! The fact that I am sceptical about the sense this screenlets-idea makes does not mean that I do not support! ;-)
With my only ressources: installing, checking and giving feedback...

Ok, I got it to run now. I had to install quite some packages more, including icedtea (Java).
Now I can start it as user tux but I cannot see any functionality. Apparently one has to install some ready screenlets - but where to get them, and what for? => @Linux4Morocco: your task now!

1. gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache does NOT work with SliTaz 3. You have to use gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders as root instead. Even after doing so, it will try falling back on the ini file... which it REFUSES to create (obviously a bug) and thus fails badly.
2. It's clear it's not working for you michaelbischof, ESPECIALLY because you had to install Java, which has absolutely NOTHING to do with python (JPython maybe, but that's only a Python interpreter written in Java) at all.

Thanks for the quick response!
What would you to propose to do?
(To make my motivation clear: if it runs finally or not I do not mind. What I intend to do is to give some feedback support to pankso, to you and to Morocco4linux. Plus: I show these threads for the few pupil-nerds to demonstrate, how OpenSource works and that and how cooperation may help to make dreams come true. In this case the dream of Morocco4linux. If Morocco votes for Linux: not bad at all!)

Got it to work folks !!

Fine, congratulations, you realized your own dream! Bravissimo!
Under Linux it is common practice now to list in detail how you got that!
(Because I prepared one rootfs.screenlets.gz just to check it out - and now I want to check it out)
Offline
Danke !!
*******
well pay attention :
1-I assume you already have installed Make, bash, perl, etc
2-download the source package from here : http://www.4shared.com/archive/id7PbDx_/screenlets-016tar.html
3-extract the contents to your home folder
4-Now it's time for the dependencies !!! :
open your terminal and do some keybord work
# tazpkg get-install python
# tazpkg get-install pygtk
# tazpkg get-install pycairo
# tazpkg get-install python-xdg
# tazpkg get-install python-gnome-desktop
# tazpkg get-install libwnck
# tazpkg get-install librsvg
5-now cd to the extracted folder and :
# make install
6- enter this command :
# gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache
7-lunch the screen lets manager from menu > utilities > screenlets
" you will find the manager completly empty"
8- go to gnome-look.org and download all the widgets you want
9-from the manager click "install" and browse to the location of your widgets and install them one by by one
10-lunch the widgets from the manager and congrats !!!

@Linux4Morocco
Like your desktop :-)
Did you install this on stable or cooking ?
Output of uname -a please.
Offline
Hey Mojo
On cooking with a 7 years old Dell Latitude 110l Pentium M 1.6 GHZ and 246MB of ram .
# uname -a
Linux slitaz 2.6.37-slitaz #2 SMP Sat Jan 21 01:52:14 CET 2012 i686 GNU/Linux

Nice i love it 
Possible you could bundle a .tazpkg for us?
@ztealmax
http://people.slitaz.org/~pankso/packages/screenlets-0.1.6.tazpkg
Receipt needs some DEPENDS
#tazpkg -gi dbus-python
#tazpkg -gi gnome-icon-theme
@Linux4Morocco
Thanks for the information.
Offline
@ ztealmax
hhhh I don't know how to do it i'm new to slitaz and linux, and I did'nt read the wiki of slitaz .
Offline
@Linux4Morocco
np m8, thanx anyways, and good work
So you basically just used cooking and pankso's method? Still doesn't work for SliTaz 3 though 
Offline
@ Trixar_za
Nope !! I installed the dependencies separately one by one, and compiled the source code of the manager, then installed the widgets separatelly, the command of pankso just resolve the problem of icon_theme nothing more. thank you pankso !!
Just try something don't give up I'm sure it will work on stable as well. in linux there is nothing impossible.
Offline
@Linux4Morocco:
A misunderstanding this morning. It had worked for me without compiling, just with the tazpkg-package. Under cooking, of course! ;-)
What did not work were 2 things:
1. In case I open the screenlets manager and click on ,,get more screenlets" nothing happens
2. The gnome-look server does not react. May be too many requests? So I could not download even 1 screenlet. Other less busy servers/mirrors known?
Then there is a mistake:
# tazpkg get-install python-gnome-desktop
There is a gnome-python-desktop package in Slitaz.
Offline
Hey Michael
yes thank you for that it was my mistake, it's gnome-python-package .
"get more screenlets" doesn't work for me to, it didn't on ubuntu too, I guess it's a bug .
Yeah gnome-look was very slow when I was downloding the widgets, I tought it was from my internet speed ! you can download what you need here at the moment : http://screenlets.org/index.php/Category:UserScreenlets
