The problem is that the libgtop has made some change in 2.5.0, so I think 
we will have to wait for gDesklets developers to update while Gnome 2.5.x 
or when 2.6 released. Like, the libgtop doesn't has the 
'glibtop/xmalloc.h' anymore and etc, etc.. Same with netspeed applet, I 
can't compile it with libgtop 2.5.0..

If anyone want gDesklets should stick to Gnome 2.4.x until gDesklets 
developers release beta version or whatever that will work with Gnome 
2.5.x or 2.6.. :-)
