Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
This is probably the most powerful pager on linux - yes it is a kicker applet! Check out the screenshot and help file for explanations.
///------#################-----
--------------------PATIENCE!-------------------
------#################-----///
Kicker of KDE 3.4 seems to have problems loading this applet. If you really want to test the applet, either
o kill kicker after starting KDE, wait until kicker is restarted and add kpager2, or
o start appletproxy /opt/kde3/share/apps/kicker/applets/kpager2.desktop
We are working on this.
KDE3.4 users! - Stay tuned.
KDE3.3 users! - Have fun! :)
PLEASE! -----------------------
For all of you experiencing this problem, give me you Versions of:
KDE, Qt, gcc, distribution.
thanks

Installation:
=====================
untar kpager2-0.6.0.tar.bz2 and goto kpager2
make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure
make
su
make install
in kicker: right click menu -> Add -> Applet -> KPager2
Compilation Problems:
=====================
There might be some issues with the system clock. Since my computer believes a day has 19 hours, the file modification times are wrong and must be set by yourself before compiling. Do:
o find . -print -exec touch {} ;
Remove the autom4te.cache directory in case you don't use automake 1.7.
Packages:
=====================
o SuSE RPM's (thanks to Loki):
