tmessage - Displays the last lines of a log file of your choice, default is /var/log/messages .
tnote - shows your own notes on your Desktop (change them by doubleclick)
tperf - shows performance information such as CPU-load, Memory usage and Network traffic
tpower - Shows temperatures, fan speeds and voltages (requires sensors)
twho - shows which users are logged in on your machine
tnetstat -shows outgoing connections and the applications that are connecting.

Tell me your opinion!

I modified the tperf theme to use less CPU time when it was running (~25% on a Athlon 4000+ to under 1%).

The file is here http://www.revis.co.uk/site/?q=node/61 along with the method so that you can use it to modify other TDE theme files for less CPU use :)

I have now modified this to support dual CPUs for my Macbook Pro :)

You can get the updated version at http://revis.co.uk/site/?q=node/148 (screenshot added)

There is also a version for PPC powerbooks at http://revis.co.uk/site/?q=node/115

I really like this widget....

I mainly use the system monitor (CPU and Memory).

Very nice looking.

I always wanted something like tmessage.theme ... I downloaded and adapted the code for my desktop. Now it rules, and it is excellent.

As a newbie , I would also like to have an option showing me the attempts made from internet users to connect to my machine. Either they succeed or not.

I am spoiled with Sygate personal firewall which was really easy to configure even with advanced rules.

Is there a newbie way to do that?

Modify tperf.theme like this to make it work:

# CPU
# model name
text x=113 y=15 sensor=program program="sysctl hw.model | sed -e 's/.*: //'" fontsize=9 align="center"

Thanks for doing TDE, I really like it.

I had to update the program="..." in tnetstat.theme to get it to work correctly. Otherwise it would sometimes display ESTABLISHED instead of program name. I changed it to:
netstat -p --numeric-hosts --ip 2>/dev/null | grep -vE '^.*-[[:space:]]*$' | grep -E '^(tcp|udp).*' | sed -e 's/.*:.*:\([^[:blank:]]*\).*\/\(.*\)/\1\t\2/' | sed -e 's/\(.*\)[[:blank:]]\(kmail\|konqueror\|kded\).*/\1\t\2/' | sort -u

I also changed tdisk.sh to make it skip filesystems that was mounted with --bind:
df -k -x none -x unknown | grep ^/ | grep -v '(proc|tmp|pts)' | head -n9 | awk '{print $5" "$6}' | nl -s" " -w1 > ~/.superkaramba/tdisk.txt
And program="..." in tdisk.theme to
sleep 1; grep ^1 ~/.superkaramba/tdisk.txt | cut -d' ' -f 3
and
sleep 1; grep ^1 ~/.superkaramba/tdisk.txt | cut -d' ' -f 2
etc.

Thanks again.

Beautifull!
...but i find the tcal theme a little useless, so i replaced "cal -m" with:
"declare -i DAYINMONTH=$(date +%d) && cal -m | sed 's/[[:space:]]'$DAYINMONTH'[[:space:]]/\['$DAYINMONTH'\]/;s/[[:space:]]'$DAYINMONTH'$/\['$DAYINMONTH'\]/;s/^'$DAYINMONTH'[[:space:]]/\['$DAYINMONTH'\]/'"

to get an [] around the actual day.

I took the liberty of adding the kernel version & KDE version to the space below the network monitor in T-perf theme. It balances the chip info that is at the top.

To do this, add the following lines below the last in the "edit theme" file (tperf.theme):

# This adds the Kernel version & KDE version you are running
text x=30 y=160 value="Kernel:" color=0,0,0 fontsize=9 align="left"
text x=62 y=160 sensor=program program="uname -r" color=1,1,1 fontsize=9 align="left"
text x=150 y=160 value="KDE:" color=0,0,0 fontsize=9 align="left"
text x=175 y=160 sensor=program program="kde-config --version | grep KDE | sed -e 's/.*: //'" line=1 color=1,1,1 fontsize=9 align="left"

I got the idea & modified the code from the ubermon theme. You may want to play with the x= setting depending on the number of characters in your kernel version.

Now if I could figure out how to keep the list of processes connecting out in tnetstat.theme to not run off the background when I'm bittorrenting w/ Azureus. Any ideas?

BTW, kudos to Chip2003 for a great theme set.

I wrote a really little script to get harddisk temperature shown in tdisk section of TDE which actually rulez!

example:

I really like this theme, but I have the same problems with my sensors: my case and CPU temp/fan sensors have spaces in their name, so the theme won't show these.

The theme doesn't seem to like spaces in the labels. So, just edit /etc/sensors.conf and remove the spaces (e.g. CPU Temp becomes CPUTemp). There also seems to be a problem with labels longer than 8 characters.

Other than that ... this is awesome.

I ran sensors to get the out put of each individual sensor. The problem I seem to be having is any sensor with a space in it's name simpll will not load.

I can get most of my voltage levels, and can get one temp reading that is labeled "temp" but I have several sensors that are labeled like, [b]CPU Fan[/b] or CPU Temp (AMD)[/b] they simply will not load. They work fine in gkrellm so I know it isn't a problem with the computer.

Is there a way to fix it? I really like this application.

And I don't have any var/log/messagusr file in my log-folder. Pretty strange...

Hallo, I use the Mandrake Linux Community 10 and the tMessage doesn't show any Kernel-Messages. Why?

The MessageWindow itself is visible, but it's empty....no Text inside ;-(

I've just found a small issue with tcal - not a major one as it wont always happen, but take May 2004 as a good example.

There are 31 days in the month, which start on a saturday. This given, means that day 31 will fall in week 6, in terms of lines, and so underneath the graphic border. I'm not sure of a good solution to this, as adding an extra line for the few times this would happen seems to be a bit too much.

Unless it can generate itself based on the current month?

Cheers

Tom

I've just installed tcal, but it didn't show days 1-4 of the month, and started on 5.

This was because the grep only searches for several spaces.

I changed the days section to:
#Days:
#1
text x=0 y=0 sensor=program program="cal -m| egrep -v ' [0-9]{4}' | cut -b -2"
#2
text x=25 y=0 sensor=program program="cal -m| egrep -v ' [0-9]{4}' | cut -b 4-5"
#3
text x=50 y=0 sensor=program program="cal -m| egrep -v ' [0-9]{4}' | cut -b 7-8"
#4
text x=75 y=0 sensor=program program="cal -m| egrep -v ' [0-9]{4}' | cut -b 10-11"
#5
text x=100 y=0 sensor=program program="cal -m| egrep -v ' [0-9]{4}' | cut -b 13-14"
#6
text x=128 y=0 sensor=program program="cal -m| egrep -v ' [0-9]{4}' | cut -b 16-17" color=255,0,0
#7
text x=155 y=0 sensor=program program="cal -m| egrep -v ' [0-9]{4}' | cut -b 18-20" color=255,0,0

which instead searches for a space and a 4-char number, which only the year can contain.

Cheers,

Tom

Would it be possible to integrate tnote into the KNotes system that's already in place in KDE?

Hey, a great collection! I had to make some minor adjustments to work with the tmessage.theme though...

First, I changed the text property's width to 570 since long lines were running outside of the background image...

-----

Secondly I ran into permission problems with tmessage as well, but if you use syslog-ng, you shouldn't be chmod'ing files.... just make a new log for you to tail.

edit /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf

Add these lines:
source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); pipe("/proc/kmsg"); };

destination messagesusr {file("/var/log/messagesusr" group("wheel") perm(0640)); };

filter f_messagesusr { level(info..warn)
and not facility(mail,news,cron); };

log { source(src); filter(f_messagesusr); destination(messagesusr); };

Then change the theme to tail /var/log/messagesusr

This of course assumes you're in group wheel... Hope this helps someone...
