Hardware Monitor applet 1.2
This is just a follow-up to the recent 1.1 release – I’ve ported
the applet to gtkmm 2.4. So now you need Gnome 2.6.
What’s new:
- Ported the applet to gtkmm 2.4 and the related gnomemm
libraries.
Features:
- monitor CPU/memory/swap/disk usage, load average,
Ethernet/modem/wireless throughput, internal temperatures, internal
fan speeds - multiple views that all support multiple monitors:
- a curve view with smooth lines
- a bar view with wacky horizontal bars
- a column view with ultra-clear vertical blocks
- a text view for those who want extreme precision
- a flame view to impress your friends
- a modular design for future enhancements
- well-behaved GNOME panel applet (no floating gkrellm
windows)
The source can be downloaded from here:
http://www.cs.auc.dk/~olau/hardware-monitor/
Screenshots are also available from the above page. The applet
requires at least Gnome 2.6 and the gtkmm 2.4 and related gnomemm*
libraries from www.gtkmm.org/.
Note that you need to install libsensors and setup lm-sensors with
your kernel if you want to monitor temperatures and fan speeds.
