compiz - Oct 2007 - Compiz - vista like Right Side Panel

Guys (and girls)

	I have seen screenshots of compiz with a vista like right side panel
holding the clock, calendar, system stats, etc. that I would love to
add. The problem is that (1) I don't know what it is called or (2) where
to look to get it. I have looked at kasbar, ksim and universal sidebar
under KDE, but those are not what I've seen. Anyone else have any other
ideas?

Thank you Steven and Lauri,

	I think ya'll hit the nail on the head. It's either gDesklets or super
Karamba. I will look at both. I don't know what, if anything, is going
on with super Karamba, but it doesn't look like it has had any
development since 2006 and much of it is 2003. I'll also look at
creating a new panel and going at it that way. There is no reason that
shouldn't work.

Thanks again.
