Wow, building a panel applet is quite a project these days because there is a<br>
different API for each environment: GNOME2, GNOME3, MATE, Xfce, Cinnamon, KDE,<br>
OpenBox, etc.<br>
<br>
I have this applet working well on my MATE laptop, but not yet working on<br>
GNOME3. It should work on GNOME2 (i.e. Debian squeeze), and my guess is Xfce<br>
will not be much work. I don't know about Cinnamon, KDE, OpenBox, whatever<br>
else... patches welcome!<br>
