[06-05-07 15:57]: [...] Anyway, I'm pretty happy with GKrellM for local monitoring with a real-time graphic display:
http://members.dslextreme.com/users/billw/gkrellm/gkrellm.html
It's included in the [open]SuSE distribution and, for 10.0 at least,
there are newer versions available from Guru's RPMs.
but you can do very similar things with conky and do not need another window open on the desktop :^)
for example: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~pat/desktop.conky.jpg
It's not included in 10.2, and it wasn't in 10.1 if I remember correctly. But it's not too complicated to setup. Step1: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=143975 and download Step2: unpack the file with the app of choice (or tar -xzf <filename>) Step3: ./configure make make install (as root) Step4: Configure Conky-config: it's $HOME/.conkyrc (examples are provided) Step5: Start Conky along with X somewhere with the -d option (conky -d) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
