System Monitor For Linux

[shn]

This probably old news for regular linux users so this does not apply to you

Gnome and KDE have system monitors and you can even monitor your linux system from the command line instead of using a gui app. But thoose applications generally do not stay on top and you have to minimize and maximize them when you want to use them.

GKrellM is a system monitor with lots of skins and other add ons. Most people that see linux screenshots see GKrellM in them and want to know what it is, so here it is

that looks like it would slow your system down, does it?

You never heard of GKrellM?

[LSA]

I&#39;ve seen it in screenshots and i&#39;ve even been to the site, I meant to try it out, but forgot the name before I had time to get it.

GKrellM has a little to much stuff for me, I got a little plugin for the panel on xfce4 that gives you a cpu, mem, and I think swap meter, but i just use the cpu meter because linux handles memory so well I don&#39;t really need to be concerned with it

i have been using it for a couple weeks, it has come a LONG way, though there is still a way to go. however if you have ever had trouble with trying to get the GTK based version running smoothly on windows, you would see the utter joy in a windows native port. ( sensing a little frustration yet ? )

i am quite happy with it, but like i said still needs some work, but im gonna stick with it
