Ok another weird problem: i load gdesklets on every start up, but the problem is, it always starts up at least 2 instances. What I mean is that when I go to System Monitor I see 2 or even 3 instances of "python" with the gdesklets icon running, and then I have to quit them manually.
Anyone had such a stupid problem?

That's normal.

But if 2 or 3 instances of the same desklet are appearing graphically, then there's a prob.

Check to see if you have it in your Sessions > Startup Programs, since it's session compatible you don't have to have it there, you just have to have it running when you shutdown gnome and it'll come up next time, but if you also have it in the startup, they'll start to multiply pretty fast since it starts a new one every time you start x in addition to the one(s) you had running last time.
