Hardware Monitor is a multi-purpose, beautiful system-monitoring applet.

The Hardware Monitor applet is an applet for the GNOME panel which tries to be a beautiful all-around solution to system monitoring. It also strives to be user-friendly and generally nice and sensible, integrating pleasantly with the rest of your GNOME desktop.

Includes different viewers, including a flame effect, allows multiple devices to be monitored in the samme applet, uses smooth updating, polished graphs, clean HIG-compliant interface.

Here are some key features of "Hardware Monitor":

· A graphical view where each monitor is represented by a (time, measurement) colored curve
· A bar-plot view with a horizontal bar per monitor
· A column view with a column (time, measurement) diagram for each monitor
· A textual view which simply lists the monitors and the currently measured values
· A flame view which produces spiffy flames, the sizes of which are determined by the values of the monitored device

And the applet supports monitoring the following hardware characteristics:

· CPU usage (all CPUs, or one at the time) - nice'd background processes such as SETI@home are automatically ignored
· Memory usage - cache and buffers are automatically ignored
· Swap usage
· Load average
· Disk usage (or disk space free)
· Network throughput (Ethernet, wireless, modem, serial link), either incoming or outgoing or both
· Temperatures from internal sensors (e.g. system board and CPU temperatures)
· Fan speeds from internal sensors

Requirements:

· gtkmm

What's New in This Release:

· Added a vertical version of the bar viewer by patch from Emmanuel Rodriguez.
· Fixed wrong counting of CPU time with new libgtop.
· Translation updates.
