Analog Clock For Desktop Free Download
Eliana Pomerantz
I am a Linux user of "intermediate" experience. I use Arch (i686) with XFCE on a moderately old Acer Aspire 2920Z laptop -- and I was trying to get an analog clock on the screen without "cairo dock" (which I hate -- all I want from it is a clock, anyway).
Puppy Linux uses "xonclock" which is nice AND in the AUR -- but it no longer compiles due to a "freetype" version dependency issue. Xonclock is no longer being developed, so it likely won't ever work again.
Two things did work however and one surprised me: Cairo-clock (which is in the community repositories) and the Opera Widget "Analog Clock" (advertised as "Simple Analog Clock" or something close to that -- it's their most popular analog clock widget).
I ran TOP under identical conditions, once using cairo-clock and once using the Opera widget. I did it several times to be sure. I saved the output as text and compared them in Meld -- here's a link to my screenshot of THAT: As you can see, cairo-clock uses three times the CPU resources -- though somewhat less memory.
Last year I went through a similar search for a good simple low-resource using analog clock. I eventually went with xclock - once I did a complete overhall in .Xdefaults to get it to look half decent. But I also learned, while experimenting with cairo-clock, that changing the update interval has a massive impact on its resource use. I threw cairo-clock away sever times as I couldn't believe when I started it up it used (and continued to use) around 15% of my CPU and a large hunk of memory. But by changing the refresh interval to something more reasonable, I got the resource use down to be comparable with many other clocks.
Hello, I just transitioned to Ubuntu MATE from Windows, so I beg your patience with me! I am looking for an easy to install transparent analog clock that I can add to my desktop. Is there any such app available? If not could someone tell me how to install one via the terminal? Many Thanks!
Thanks Pavlos! I've looked at it but would really like something subtle that blends in with the desktop image background. It's been hard to find one that has that look. Would welcome any other recommendations.
Those of you who like to keep an eye fixed on the fancier side of Linux desktop will be interested to know that the Burn My Windows extension and Desktop Clock GNOME extension both received updates this weekend.
Desktop Clock v4 is a substantial upgrade. It adds a ton of new features, customisation options, and UI improvements. For instance, this update gives you more control over the look, alignment, padding, and spacing of digital clocks. Using these options you can create some truly bespoke desktop clocks.
Initially, a device that was 'disconnected' and simply a clock with an alarm was the reason to purchase this clock. The randomness of which tune wakes me up in the morning makes it a pleasure added to the ability of changing artists when necessity calls. The aesthetic is without complication and clean. You experience a subtle interface through a tap or small LED in the name- brilliant. I thought why not? I have not been disappointed and neither will anyone looking for simplicity in design with excellent function.
Clock screensavers are especially useful screensavers in that they show you the time of day, and sometimes also the current date and day of the week, so that you can keep an eye on it even when you are away from the computer. Clocks range from straightforward analog clockfaces, pendulums and digital wall clocks to unique and abstract depictions of time.
