Hi,
I like your widget. It is nice and compact. But I have a question:
Can yo please add other system monitoring graphs like network throughput and disk activity? Although these are not specific 'resource' monitoring, it would certainly enhance your widget.

Hi,
sometimes when I click on plasma widget the KSysGuard app does not open. Sometimes it works sometimes it doens. I haven't been able to discover when it does not work.

Hello and thanks for your work.

Could you add some more functionality to the plasmoid, like separate graphs for each core, and one for overall cpu load, where each type can be switched on/off from the settings menu?

Also, some coloring options for each graph would be great, for example one set of colors for each core (also user settable), separate colors for memory graphs, etc...

Finally, it would be really nice if you could add cpu states to the popup (idle, i/o wait, user/system).

Cheeras, Andrea

Hi, thanks for suggestions! I'll try to add all (or most) of what you suggested in next releases.

Need to change "Hz" to "MHz", and "G" to "GiB"
Example: 2200 Hz is only 2.2 MHz, which I believe is one incredibly slow CPU ;)

...and I made a typo myself... and cannot edit my own comments. Oh well you know what I mean ;)

Thanks, you're right I made terrible typo there! :) I definitely repair the Hz nonsense. But I like the minimal version of GiB -> G, MiB -> M. It's perfect for these small applets and makes space for more numbers. So I probably stick with that.

Do you plan on adding some left click things? Maybe changing frequencies for CPU?

Hi, I haven't decided, yet. I really made it just because of the the "history-graphs" of resources and to see more info in smaller area. When I have more time I'll think about it :) Thanks for the idea!
