Howto get iStat menus working in Lion

[Leon]

Hi guys, Long Nguyen Hai, a web developer in Vietnam, posted a workaround!

I've copied the important parts below, in case the URL doesn't show up because I'm new to this forum.

What I did is downloading the latest version of MenuCracker from SourceForge, overwrite the old MenuCracker.menu within iStat Menus.app. Optionally, kill the iStatLocal daemon process and overwrite the MenuCracker.menu file at /Library/Application Support/iStat Local/extra/

And the link to MenuCracker is:

UPDATE:

An easier way is to copy the attached com.apple.systemuiserver.plist to /Users//Library/Preferences and reboot the computer..
