Hello,
Strange, it works for me. Did you add your username (e.g. john.doe) or your gmail address (e.g. john.doe@gmail.com)?
Maybe something wrong with your password? Can you launch the dock from a terminal and check the output messages? |

I had a similar problem. I suspected that it was caused because I use a secure connection to check my gmail. I solved the problem by configuring my mail account as POP3 account and checking "Use a secure connection" This seems to work fine. I used full gmail address (xxx@gmail.com) and password. and mail.google.com as the POP server |

Gmail applet is not working for me. It says "there is no subscription..." after I input my username and password (I've tried with and without @gmail.com).
I'm using mint 12 and tried it with cairo-dock 2.4.0-2 and 3.0.0.0-a1.
The default Mail applet is also not working - NA... |

Is there anyone else with this problem? Anyone?
I'll review the code and see if there's been any undersirable modification.

Meanwhile please check your ~/.config/cairo-dock/ and see if there is a text file called '.Gmail_subscription' with:
ls -a ~/.config/cairo-dock/ |

OK I see it already: there are some indent issues in the code which make the connection impossible.
I will change this asap. |

@Matttbe: I cleaned up the file and proposed merging already. Let us know when the corrected file is available for download.
I will require some testing. |

Hi, this applet does not work if there are blank spaces in password. Strong passwords do have blank spaces.

I'm surprised, blank spaces are allowed in the .conf files.
but isn't the password crypted, like in the Mail applet ? |

I think it's simply because the user name and the password are saved in the same line of a file. They are crypted but they are separated by a blank space and then they are crypted...
Maybe it can be better to use two lines or separate them with another character. |

oh ok, what a strange idea to store both values under a same key
it would be better to have 2 keys, one for user another for crypted password
can anyone patch that ? |

That should be fixed with the rev 239
@ Guest: can you confirm it? |

Hi all
did you considered to add a feature for blinking a thinklight for Thinkpads?
The command is super simply so i think i wouldn't be a problem to implement it
Software Control via thinkpad-acpi
Support for controlling the light with ACPI is provided by thinkpad-acpi. After installing it, a simple # echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/tpacpi\:\:thinklight/brightness
switches it on and a # echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/tpacpi\:\:thinklight/brightness
Source: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkLight
I think it would be very nice and cool feature
cheers,
Johnny |

It can be interesting but it needs root right (at least to give right the user)
But you can also "hack" GMail applet to do that: you can add a few lines at the end of the function send_alert (line 428). E.g. by launching a script with os.popen('sh /PATH/TO/THE/SCRIPT.sh') (and using a script with echo 255 (...) && sleep 1 && echo 0 (...)) (but you need right to write on this file: /sys/class/leds/tpacpi\:\:thinklight/brightness...) |

Hello,
With the GMail applet (not our Mail applet! GMail applet can be installed by dragging a link that you can found here (after having selected the right version number) and dropping it into the dock), you can do a left click on it (if it's the first time you're using it) or a right click / Add/Change the subscription. |
