This is a fork of PiClock3 that has been modified to be a much simplified version of the desktop clock.

Here is how to install this code

git clone https://github.com/gamename/PiClock3

Here is what the new configuration looks like

Here is how to make the clock start at boot time:

  1. Create a file in your home directory called piclock3-startup.sh with this content
#!/bin/bash
cd /home/your-id-name-here/PiClock3 && python3 ./PyQtPiClock3.py
  1. Make sure the file is executable
chmod +x ./piclock3-startup.sh
  1. Create a file called /etc/xdg/autostart/piclock3.desktop with this content
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=PiClock3
Comment=Desktop Clock
NoDisplay=false
Exec=/home/your-id-name-here/piclock3-startup.sh
NotShowIn=GNOME;KDE;XFCE;
  1. Reboot

Here is how to remove the cursor from the screen

sudo apt install unclutter
