Cool applications

[Tyr_7BE]

I realize this is a very old post. I'm just getting around the site, and tried the link in the above post but it no longer works.

I could sure use a cool system monitoring app ....I have not been through all the pages of this thread, but hope someone can point me to where this app now is available.

Sorry if the answer is already posted in one of the replies I have not read yet.

Thanks!

I use Gnome, and it has a great system monitor applet. Just right-click on your panel, and select "Add to Panel...", scroll down to "System and Hardware", and select "System Monitor". This will give you a CPU monitor. If you right-click on it you can expand it to monitor all kinds of things.

If that's not your style, there's always gdesklets. Take a look further down the page for the categories of desklets, some of which can monitor CPU, network stats, memory, hard disk, etc...
