However, this is not a problem with the screenlet, but with screenlets framwork.
Just update to the last version to fix this issue. Look here for the last version: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Screenlets+0.1.2?content=82586 - Aug 07 2008

You can e-mail me, my e-mail address is in the screenlet. - Jun 20 2008

However, if you want to keep the screenlet below, just check the "below" option. When you will come back, the below option will no more be checked, but the screenlet will work as if it is checked. This is the way it works for me, but I use scrennlets version 0.0.12 and not the last one (0.1.2) - Jun 18 2008

This may be really useful if you want to save energy and force low frequency, or if your CPU is heavily overclocked and you want to force it to relax when powerful calculation capability is not critical.
You can use with "custom sensor" and the script used to display CPU frequency given in the howto.txt file.
The file must be run as root (check the "sudo command" in System control tab)
Set the start value to the value you want (0 or 100%)
Set the step value to 100.
And now here is the script. Copy it in a file called cpufreq.py (for example), set it writable only for root and runnable.
############### Start script (do not copy this line)#############
#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding: utf-8
#This script is made to work with 4 cores system. Modify it to meet your needs
#You need to have cpufreq driver working to use it
#this script must be run as root (sudo)
# the -g parameter can be "conservative", "ondemand", "powersave", "userspace" or "performance" depending on your CPU capabilities
import sys
import commands
if len(sys.argv) == 2:
a = int(sys.argv[1])
if a<128:
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 0 -g conservative")
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 1 -g conservative")
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 2 -g conservative")
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 3 -g conservative")
else:
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 0 -g ondemand")
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 1 -g ondemand")
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 2 -g ondemand")
commands.getoutput("cpufreq-selector -c 3 -g ondemand")
############ End Script (do not copy this line)##############

You can probably use all your icons, and just resize one or two to fit with new functionalities. - Jan 24 2008

Maybe, if you display local IP and remote IP, it may create a problem, since WaterMark do not manage any proxy at this time.
Maybe, disabling these options may solve the problem. - Jan 23 2008

Maybe it's a problem with screenlets installation, and not WaterMark.
Which version of screenlets do you use, and where did you found it? - Jan 23 2008

Regarding helping on the core, it will be difficult. I do not have enough time for that. Even working on my two small screenlets is difficult because of the lack of time.
To add sensors functions in the screenlet, it will be necessary to rewrite several parts, since, the code is not made to be easily used in other software. But As I said, I don't have time to do it myself. - Jan 12 2008

If you know a font which is as condensed and as sharp as Arial, but open source, your suggestion is welcome. - Jan 09 2008

Conky by walloo13 158 comments
I thought arial was a quite common font, and that an open version was available.
After verification, my fresh installation of Ubuntu do not have arial font.
I will fix this problem as soon as possible.
Fortunately, even if the font is not present, it works well (on Ubuntu 7.10) - Jan 09 2008

If there is a problem, you will see errors which can help me to find what goes wrong.
Copy error messages, and send it to me (my em-mail is in the readme file) - Jan 06 2008

I am about to make a major refactoring on the screenlet to reduce memory usage, make it smaller, add several functionalities etc...
It may be a good time to stabilize the theme and start adding new themes like yours.
I like the font you use. At this time, I had problems to find a font which will fit perfectly with pixels and display small fonts clearly. Do you plan to release your font in GPL or something like that? Or if you know a common font which is nice and have the same clear rendering I may be interested in it.
By the way, if you increase the height of the screenlet which display cpu load, you may be able to see two progressbar showing the usage of your two cores.
You can contact me directely by e-mail (my e-mail is in the readme file)

Maybe you have this problem because your X11 do not have composite running.
The best way to have composite running on ubuntu 7.10 is to install nvidia proprietary drivers using ubuntu proprietary driver interface.
If composite works well, you should be able to enable advanced visual effects like windows distortion.
To enable advanced desktop effects, go to "preference->Appearance->Visual Effects" and enable Extra.
By installing compiz fusion manager:
sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
you will be able to configure all effects. - Jan 02 2008

To install it using the screenlet manager, first, you have to rename the archive to:
WaterMark.tar.gz, and it will work.
The second solution is to extract the archive directely in your ~/.screenlet folder. then, the screenlet will appear in screenlet-manager the next time you will start it. - Jan 02 2008

For wifi info:
When your wireless connection is disconnected, can you execute these commands in a terminal:
cat /proc/net/wireless > wireless.txt
iwconfig > iwconfig.txt
Then zip wireless.txt and iwconfig.txt and send them to me by e-mail. My e-mail address is in the README file.
I may be able to fix this problem with all these information. - Dec 25 2007

For processors, it can be possible to create a single core secreenlet. Hovewer, multi core are displayed with CPU0 at the top, then CPU1, CPU2, CPU3 etc... I may not be able to give more information than CPU0 , CPU1 label, at this time, so it's not so much useful.
2) When your wireless connection is disconnected, can you execute these commands in a terminal:
cat /proc/net/wireless > wireless.txt
iwconfig > iwconfig.txt
Then zip wireless.txt and iwconfig.txt and send them to me by e-mail. My e-mail address is in the README file. Please, do the same thing when you are connected, it may help me to fix the bug.
I may be able to fix this problem with all these information.
You probably have a nvidia video card, which may explain your black window problem.
If you use ubuntu, just edit /usr/bin/compiz and change INDIRECT="no" to INDIRECT="yes".
If you start compiz with your own command, then add the following parameter: --indirect-rendering
It should fix your problem. It worked for me.

To install screenlets, go to http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/FAQ and follow instruction.
Then, to install WaterMark screenlet, create a .screenlets folder with the following command:
mkdir ~/.screenlets
Then uncompress Watermark screenlet in this new folder (set "view->show hidden files" in your file manager to be able to see .screenlets folder in your home directory).
Now,you should have WaterMark folder in .screenlets folder.
To run the screenlet, go in you preference folder and run "screenlets" or run "screenlets-manager" from a terminal.
You may have an error message on start, but it's not a problem.
Now, select WaterMark screenlet, then set "Automatically start on login" and "Enable/Disable" option.
A session of the screenlet should appear on your desktop. Right click on the icon to display a menu with properties options. Now configure it the way you want.
Since a session of the screenlet display only one information at a time, to display all information you want, you have to launch several sessions of the screenlet by double clicking it in the screenlet manager, then configure each of them the way you want. - Dec 22 2007

cat /proc/net/dev > net1.txt
then a few seconds later:
cat /proc/net/dev > net2.txt
Please, download or upload something (can be a simple web page) between the two commands.
Then zip net1.txt and net2.txt and send it to me by e-mail. My e-mail is in the README file in the software package.

Then, in the second combobox, you should be able to see all your sensors. Just select the one you want to see. (update of the screenlet may take 10 seconds).
You need to quit, then restart screenlet watermark after you installed lm-sensors to have sensors visible in the second combobox.
If you want to display several sensors, then just launch several time the screenlet and configure each one the way you want. - Dec 20 2007

Conky by walloo13 158 comments
For CPU sensors, maybe you need to install lm-sensors, then run sensors-detect to configure it.
