This is a very simple system monitor, but it's somewhat different from others since instead of displaying various kind of graphs, the load of the system is determined by a little spinning square. The faster this square spins, the more busy your system is (and yes, you can change its color). It also have a popup menu to see cpu and memory usage in greater details.

This project is on hiatus right now. I don't have much free time these days, and with KDE 4.0 coming with a brand new framework to develop applets, I think it's better if I just concentrate on my other projects for the time being.

* Add a new fire applet (right click).
* Add transparency support (only when in square mode. Thanks again Matías!).
* Rework configuration dialogs.
[0.92]
* Double buffering to remove flickers.
* Show the "active memory" usage in the popup menu so it is not always ~100%.
A big thanks to Matías Costa. He has done most of the work!

* The applet was sometime trying to divide by zero, causing it to crash. This is fixed now.

When I try to compile this nice application, after ./configure when I run make, I get an error (reported below in detail). I have automake-1.9 installed (SuSE 10.0). I also found an workaround to the problem; just go to the src/ directory and then use make and make install.
Feature Request:
1. Configurable rotation speed. Currently its too fast.
2. Modify the ssm.desktop and add an icon and write the application name there
3. Configure option to change the size of the squre. It seems too big to me.

Aside from your compile problems, thanks for the suggestions, they are actual good ideas. I might have some time to work on this project next week, so keep an eye open.

I was wondering my other applet "style clock" flickers from time to time (it hasnt done so before installing your monitor).
Any ideas?

I, [twitching] didn't realize I can live without hard CPU % numbers. I consider this applet a therapy. :)

but it compiles fine with just : ./configure
the pb is it doesn't seems to go in /usr which is my kde installation directory.

nice program!!!
It is very useful if you don't have much space left...
... but I would like to change the background color to transparent or a color that fit my needs.
Anyway, Good Work!
