Description 

GKrellM is a GTK and Imlib-based stacked monitor program that charts SMP CPUs, disk, load, active net interfaces, and internet connections. There are also monitors for memory and swap, file system with mount/umount feature, mailbox checking including POP3 and IMAP, clock/calendar, APM laptop battery, CPU temperatures, and uptime. It has LEDs for the net monitors and an on/off button and online timer for PPP.

Features
