I manage to make it work on CentOS 5.2
first time compile it complete smoothly .. but.
first time run it said cannot load ..
then do
yum install xulrunner-devel xulrunner-devel-unstable
re-compile..
and again try run
ggl-gtk
did’nt work.. then try.
ggl-gtk –help
then try
ggl-gtk -ns
then take a peek at /usr/local/share/google-gadgets
ggl-gtk analog-clock
… and it ask for permission to allow this to access network and bla..bla.. click yes..
and yes.. it popup nicely.. at the sidebar..
this would then make this app as ..
the best yahoo messenger for centos
.. after pidgin.. hehehe 😎
as it had supersede the pidgin capabilities to perform
some additional task which is not available in pidgin..
may be you had been using other messenger..
kindly post your comment in the form below ..
p/s : don’t shoot the messenger..
I did the steps above but got this message while installing:
