1.) It's the gconf configuration to set the metacity opacity.
	Copy 'gwd' to  ~/.gconf/apps/ .

2.) Settings for the clock applet:
	find '/apps/panel/applets/clock_screen0/prefs/custom_format' and set it to:
	
	<span size="smaller" color="#606060"> %d %b </span><span weight="bold"> %H:%M </span>
	
	Before that you need to set the key '/apps/panel/applets/clock_screen0/prefs/format' to 'custom'
	without the quotes.
