Some time ago, I switched away from gkrellm and started using torsmo to free some space on my desktop. Soon, I made some patches to fix some things which were broken on my setup; unfortunately, the projects seems to be stalled.

Luckily, Brenden Matthews forked it and created conky , which not only contains a lot of fixes, but also adds lots of new features such as graphs, and SMP support. And finally, my patches found their way upstream. Yesterday now, I joined the development team of conky, after annoying the maintainer with patches for two days :-).

Obligatory screenshot (click for the full desktop):

There's a prerelease available (CRUX users can enjoy the 1.2.9 port in my httpup repository), 1.3.0 should be out next week. If you have questions, problems or just want to meet the team, feel free to join #conky on irc.freenode.net.

P.S. Yes I realized that one bar has a white border :-)
