I found a great little Gnome applet. It the one that shows the CPU usage as a fire. The higher the fire the more the CPU used.
Is there anyway for me to use that applet in KDE? BTW I'm useing 7.2.
Like someone else wrote on this list: you need the Gnome panel to be able to use an Gnome applet. So why not start panel first ( you have to move kicker to another location on the screen first, otherwise you probably won' t see Panel) and then start the applet. This works for me. I didn't check all available applets but it works for Gaim and Stripchart for example. I you don't like to have/see the two taskbars kicker and panel, you could just minimize one? Oh, and Windowmaker has the same applet (wmfire). This starts OK in KDE, only not in the taskbar. cheers, Marcel
