Fresh installed with Ubuntu 15.05 Unity Environment
Does this screenlet only work with gnome?

These files should be the skin files, however at least one file is corrupt (the file itself is a ZIP). I'm sure this is intentionally done by the developers (to prevent using the skins on other systems)

These files do not follow the Zip file specifications. The first to bytes of the files should be "PK".

You can use this script to convert all theme files in the current directory:

#!/bin/bash
SAVEIFS=$IFS
IFS=$(echo -en "\n\b")
FILES='./*.PCSkin'
for f in $FILES
do
echo -en PK >test.pcskin
tail -c+3 $f >>test.pcskin
mv test.pcskin $f
done
IFS=$SAVEIFS

I need multiple skins in order to do a World Clock. I found the skins at http://www.perfect-clock.com/index.php?page=download-skins and downloaded them into ~/USERNAME//screenlets/PerfectClock/themes, but despite being recognized by Perfect Clock, they don't appear when selected. They have an odd extension, .PCSkin

How do I add those to PerfectClock and use them?

Many thanks.

I try sudo ./PerfectClockScreenlet.py in a terminal and the install fails with

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'path'

There is no option in Screenlets itself which permits me to successfully install 'it. When I click on Install in Screenlets and navigate to .perfectclock under my home directory, no installable screenlet is found.

I use Karmic Koala, and the version of Screenlets is 0.1.2

Your kind assistance is appreciated.

OK, resolved that problem; installed under ~/USERNAME/.screenlets and it works much better.

Can you add to archive all the skins from the www.perfect-clock.com like folders, because I can't install the xxxx.PCSkin (it's just can't load the skin). I use "install clock skin", but can't install the skin. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 ...

Hi!

I'm using Screenlets 0.0.12 under Ubuntu 8.04 with Compiz und Gnome. All my other Screenlets work really fine!

When I'm trying to launch PerfectClock via the ScreenletManager, nothing happens.
Via the console, I get the following output:

CachingBackend: Loading instances from cache
Found a running session of PerfectClock, adding new instance by service.

Hello,

well I'm typing in my terminal ./PerfectClockScreenlet.py but here is what I get: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.


What is wrong?

Thank you very much.
