Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
This is a simple monitor I use on my desktop(hacked from another one I don't remember the name), got off looking at those big ones covering a lot of screen... basically I want to see what is happening on my comp but not all the unnecessary details.
So just Extract and add using "Install new widgets"-->"Install from file"
**depends on acpi,hddtemp,lm_sensors
I have kept them separated so that it easy to just keep what you want.
Have fun!

V1.6 Updated Power/Battery indicator
V1.5 Added CPU monitor for intel i7 and like (dual quad core)
V1.4 Minor changes.
V1.3 Changed Default Location of the monitors from x=0,y=0 to y+=100, so that Top panel doesnt hide the theme
packed all thems inside tar.gz file to make them installable directly from Superkaramba's 'Get new Stuff'
Thanks Lechio for the suggestions.
V1.2 Added Power monitor for Laptops
V1.1 Added Temp monitors for CPU and HDD, and a separate quad core CPU monitor.
V1.0 Simple monitor for CPU MEM and NET

If you want to try: set the width of the whole applet to w=226, startposition of background image x=1, for bar.png x=87, text x=40 and x=4 for sensor name.

If I add TEMP widget as super user "sudo" trough superkaramba it shows HDD temp...
How to solve this issue ?
Using Kubuntu 8.10

Try this command
"hddtemp /dev/sda"
and if it gives error
"sudo hddtemp /dev/sda"
output should be something like
/dev/sda: Hitachi HTS542525K9SA00: 38°C
if the later works then you will need to change the same in the TEMP.skz file..
Procedure
1. Rename TEMP.skz to TEMP.zip
2. Extract
3. Open TEMP.theme in text editor and change "hddtemp /dev/sda" to "sudo hddtemp /dev/sda"
4. Re zip to TEMP.zip
5. Rename back to TEMP.skz

A couple of things that could be improved:
- The packaging: don't put the skz file inside a zip archive otherwise it will fail to install with the "get new stuff" option in SuperKaramba;
- The position of the themes on screen: when a person has the panel at the top of the screen, the themes get covered by the panel, and will not show, making a theme display at (0,0) coordinates is not a good idea. Try to make them display lower, maybe something like x=100 would be a good spot. Also don't make the different themes display at the same positions.
- The size of the themes:
Background image is of 230x16, but in the theme files that display two rows you have the sizes of 240x25. Should be something like "h=32" in those and something like "h=64" for the quad core, otherwise those will crop.
Other than that it's a nice, simple theme and my choice for showing CPU info :)

It's a quick fix for the packaging, instead of using zip as compression, use the .tar.gz compression format. Put all of your skz files inside that tar.gz package and it's done.

Ny the way me added one more sensor:
bar x=95 y=3 w=142 h=10 name="bar" vertical=false path="img/bar.png" sensor=program program="powersave -b | grep per | awk {'print $3'}" interval=10000
text x=50 y=0 w=43 h=15 sensor=program program="echo `powersave -b | grep per | awk {'print $3'}` %" interval=10000 align=right fontsize=13
text x=50 y=14 w=142 h=15 sensor=program program="echo `powersave -b | grep AC | awk {'print $3'}`/`powersave -b | grep Ch | awk {'print $3'}`" interval=10000 align=right fontsize=13
It looks good on my laptop.

I moved it to the karama section in order to reflect this (+avoid confusion since it is not working at all without superkaramba installed).

Still, I'll wait for the next version with temperatures ... I'm too lazy now to modify it.
