Hi Ljubomir.

It might be collectd that can use mysql. The man page is 
over 5,000 pages for the config file. I seem to remember 
seeing a message at boot time about collectd not being 
configured properly to use mysql.

I installed collectd recently, so I could monitor my HDD 
temperatures using GKrellM, which it's doing OK.

I'll leave this for another day!

Kind Regards,

Keith
