Thank you for the work, i will test it when it is packaged for debian sid. Do you have a paypal page i will make a donation.

I have some small issue with the clock panel with the led mode and the left not used space, i will make a bug report for it later this year. I will make a donation if the visual bug gets fixed.

Huh, I don't have a paypal account (well I have but I don't have a friendly CD). No but thanks :-) You are the first one btw, willing to offer me a bounty.
