Yes, I know, I just don't want to look at their sources. In this case, it's easier and more fun to write something myself which then does exactly what I want. I've done that yesterday. It's working already, showing an automatically scaling graph of the used network bandwidth over 360 samples, with the update interval given on the command line. Let it update every 10 seconds, and you see the last hour. Xosview can't do that, and conky probably can't, either. It also has almost zero CPU usage, and memory usage is only 40064/2272 virt/res. Now I could add showing processes or whatever I like to see :) -- Fedora release 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat) -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
