Now, for the real question, is there any good alarm-clock applet
that I could use for the GNOME desktop? Currently I am using the
command line sleep command to achieve what I want, but then it is
rather cumbersome.
I use "remind" together with a silly app I wrote to popup messages.
Here's the link to my stuff:

(which, in turn, has links to remind and wot-not).
Going through the page.. thanks for the pointers :-)

A quick search came up with three solutions. None of them are Gnome -
specific, but they should work.
xmms-alarm - which is available via yum
kalarm - you'll have to install some portion of KDE
DASC - http://www.davefancella.com/software/dsac.html
I've not tried any of them. DASC (a Python application) built cleanly
and started up under Gnome.
/mde/
just my two cents . . . .
Hi Mark,
I guess I shall go ahead and build a Java based application once I am
done with my exam :-) ... Given that Java 6 now allows me to place items
in the sys-tray, it should be a fairly trivial task :-) ... Atleast, I
do not have to see statements as mentioned on DASC's site ... this
doesn't work, will be fixed later, etc.
On a side note, looks like my yum configuration is messed up, I do not
see kalarm... which is strange... I have the Fedora and Livna
repositories enabled.
later,
Rogue
